Great thanks.  You're definitely a speedy.:emotion-1:   Maybe you'll know if there is a learning version of windows 2008 server.  I'd hate to buy a copy at this stage.   Thanks again   Mike
Hi I'll be studying for some MS 2008 certs.  I purchased a vostro 3700 so that I could lab server 2008 and 2008 hyper-v.  What are my options for keeping windows 7 pro and dual booting to windows 7.  I had dual booted stuff since windows 98, so any assistance would be greatly appreciated:emotion-2: Thanks again   Mike
