Hi guys,

I have gotten a genuine copy of Server 2008 R2 through my MSDN Subscription.
Now, my question is, after activating/deactivating features in Server 2008 R2, will I experience the same driver + gaming 'feeling' as I would in Windows 7?

Since they share the same kernel, shurely there should be very little between the two?

Could I use my Windows 7 drivers for my components?

Thnx.
:)
 
I would say yes, they share the same code base:

Windows 2008 = Vista SP1
Windows 2008 SP2 = Windows 2008 with an SP
Windows 2008 R2 = Windows 7; simple huh ;)

Drivers, games and programs should work between Win7 and 2008 R2, unless they coded to check for a certain OS.
