To do this, you have to alter the "boot.ini" entry to load up Windows. Change "/NoExecute=3Dxxxxx" into "/NoExecute=3DAlwaysOff". Unfortunatly, it doesn't help. I believe, the problem is only the following link (as posted): http://ws03sp1.update.microsoft.com/windowsupdate/footer.aspx?ln=3Den-us Without SP1, I can surf this link and it will displayed as it is fine. Funny only, that Win2003 without SP1 complains about this site is not a trusted one ;-) When applied SP1, the small HTML code with JavaScript and CSS genereated by the "footer.aspx" locksup Win2003. I'm out of ideas. I think that Windows Server 2003 is currently not fully supported by QEMU. Without SP1, I also can't install all windows updates. I don't wonder, if M$ did a special thing, which conflict with QEMU... they even could loose theyre Win3x source code.
