I am trying to upgrade from Windows Server 2003 Standard edition with SP1 to
Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition. I keep getting the following
message:

Setup cannot continue because the operating system edition is different from
the setup edition.

What I have done is run the setup2.exe from disc 2, where do I go now?

Like run setup from disk one first? It sounds like you started with
disk 2, not disk 1...
