How to determine if your FedComp Server is running Windows Server 2003
(This must be performed on the FedComp Server PC/Desktop.)
Sign into the Windows desktop and follow these steps:
- Look at your Windows Start Button in the lower left hand corner.
- If it is shaped like an Orb, you do not have Windows Server 2003 and do not need to continue.
- If it is shaped like a rectangle with “Start” typed out, then continue.
- To bring up the “Run Window”, you can bring it up 2 ways.
- Hold down the Window Key on your keyboard and hit the “R” key
- Or, after clicking the Start Button, click on “Run”.
- A Run window will appear.
- In the text field, next to “Open,” type: winver
- Hit Ok
- An “About Windows” window will pop up.
- If it is shaped like an Orb, you do not have Windows Server 2003 and do not need to continue.
- If it lists Windows Server 2003 or 2003 R2 then you will need to upgrade regardless of the edition
