OK guys here you go 3 STEPS ONLY AND YOU WILL HAVE BDA ON SERVER
I compiled A setup file, that will add BDA function on server 2008, without any hassles.
i tested it on a clean installation several times. no issues at all
………………………………………….. ……………………………………
NOTE: THIS SETUP FILE DO NOT INCLUDE ANY VISTA OR SERVER FILES EXCEPT DIRECTX 9 RUNTIME
BDA FILES. NO CODE WAS ALTERTED (MODDED) OR ANYTHING
THIS METHOD DOES NOT VIOLATE THE WINDOWS VISTA OR SERVER 2008 CODE IN ITS ALL INTEGRITY
NOTHING WAS TAKEN OFF, NO FILES, EVEN THE ORIGINAL CODE WAS KEPT INTACT
………………………………………….. ……………………………………
LETS GET STARTED….
Download the file
Link:
http://www.mediafire.com/?h1ndmyymjmv
or
http://rapidshare.com/files/112849779/bdaforserver.exe
Double click on the downloaded file, and it will extract as “bdaforserver” to your windows
installation drive,thats were the setup MUST be runned from, otherwise it wont work
IMPORTANT:IN ORDER FOR EVERYTHING TO WORK, RUN THE SETUP FROM WERE YOUR WINDOWS
IS INSTALLED (C OTHERWISE IT WONT WORK (THATS WERE IT EXTRACTED)
ON VISTA
1.
Double click the “Get BDA Vista Files.exe” this will get all BDA files from vista and will
place the files in folder “SOURCE”
thats done SIMPLE
Now save this whole folder “bdaforserver” as this folder will be required on server
ON SERVER
2.
Install server 2008, and place this “bdaforserver” folder you saved before
on your windows installation drive. REMEMBER, THE “bdaforserver” MUST BE IN YOUR
WINDOWS INSTALLATION DRIVE (NOT DESKTOP OR ANYWHERE) OTHERWISE IT WONT WORK.
(OPTIANAL)
Install desktop experience from server manager>ADD FEATURES, as this will install some missing
filters and codecs, just to be on the safe side. restart after installation
3.
Go to “bdaforserver” folder, and Right click on “BDASetup.exe” and choose “Run as administrator”
after that your computer will automitically reboot. after reboot windows server will prompt you to
locate and install these pnp devices. just click cancell for all them.
thats it done. SIMPLE
I highly recommend you to install a decent codec pack, as there are no codecs, filters on server.
K-LITE CODEC IS THE BEST ONE, or VISTA CODECS
NOTE:EVEN THOUGH THESE FILES DONT TOUCH MAIN SYSTEM CRITICAL FILES OR SETTINGS, AM NOT RESPONSIBLE
FOR ANY DATA LOSS OR DAMAGE, USE THIS METHOD AT YOUR OWN RISK.
