4. Point start, run, input cmd, enter. Input: cd/d a:/i386 carriage return

5. Winnt32/syspart:c/makelocalsource/tempdrive:c (if you want to install a dual system, XP or other system in C, Server 2003 in the other disk, then replace the c you want to install 2003 of the letter)

6. Choose a new installation, ..., enter the serial number and click Next, the page appears to click Advanced Options, the "Copy file location" modified to the Windows Server 2003 operating system of the normal files of the I386 directory (the default copy of the file address is a:/i386 is the virtual CD-ROM drive If you do not modify the default (A:/I386), the CD file is not found during setup and after reboot. Follow the steps ... A manual reboot is required after the copy file is completed. After the file is copied, unplug the U disk before rebooting, remember!!
