a while ago I attempted to install W2003 Server on a T130 with a Intel Xeon E3-1225 v5 3.3GHz, 8M cache, 4C/4T, turbo processor and perc raid1. The install process choked and I chalked it up to "Old tech" and didn't question exactly why it wasn't allowed
That was Ok.
Now, in a different situation I would like to know why because I have a spare T130 (same setup) and a keep it around-legacy situation that requires W2003 Server.
Does anybody know what it is that causes the T130 to not be compatible with W2003? Is there anything I can set in the BIOS etc. that will allow W2003 to install? (Preferably without losing the RAID1. I remember some other Dell models with "legacy"(?)-like checkboxes somewhere in the setup...
thanks for any help
