Hello,
I have downloaded the Trial copies of WUDSS. I received my key
and am able to install windows 2k3 with out an issue. However when i
go to add the WUDSS package i get an error stating that I need to have
windows Storage Server 2003 installed. I was wondering if this is an
issue anyone else has seen.

A little more background. ( as the above may be unclear ) when
you go to download the WUDSS trial you get a link to a 180 day trial
of WIndows 2003 Enterprise. Microsoft sends you a key via email that
when entered converts the W2k3 to Windows Storage Server 2K3.
( supposedly ). During install I entered this Key however i see no
change. IE... i still see Windows 2k3 as the OS in properties, and
in the bottom right hand corner of the screen. ( much like the
Standard 2k3 180 day trial. ) at this point I try and install the
WUDSS packages and it fails stating that i need a copy of Windows
Storage Server 2k3.

Any help would be great, Unfortunately Microsoft suggested that
i buy the product in order to get there support with the issue.
( seems like alot of money to spend on something that may not even fit
the bill ).
