You will need to start by visiting the Samsung site and see if they have drivers for this computer for that OS. I highly suggest that you do not download drivers from untrusted sources.

Here is a better option since you may not be able to find drivers for Server 2008 for this computer. If you can run Windows XP-7, just install that operating system. Then, if you are trying to install Server to learn or train, install a virtualization application such as Virtual Box... then run Server as a VM. No drivers requried for the guest VMs.

Have you tried using Windows 7 drivers? (even Vista drivers if they are all you can get) You'll be surprised at the amount of similarities there are architecturally.

I'm sorry that I didn't notice your post earlier.
