A welcoming screen is included with tools to manage the server.

The initial screen resolution is set to 640 x 480. You may select the popup balloon to raise that up to 800 x 600 automatically.

800 x 600 is a wonderful thing. Now you can see all of the "Manage Your Server" screen.

My choice was to check the box "Don't display this page at logon" in the bottom left.

This concludes Black Viper's Guide to installing Windows 2003 Enterprise Server.

I hope this page helped you out or gave you a sneak peek at what is to come.
