Computer Tech New Activity

Recently bought 2 new servers with Windows Server 2008 on them. Was curious if anyone has ever heard of or knows if it is possible to do a MS backup or some other program on a Windows Server 2003 server and import the settings on to a newer Windows Server 2008 server. Currently want to replace the old servers with the new ones, but was hoping all of our server settings could be imported to the new servers, instead of having to set everything up all over again. Also the old servers will be used still but only as an emergency backup incase something happens to the new server. Anyone have some input on this ? Thanks! -David

I have been looking up information about Intel and AMD's quad core processors. I am about to build 2 new servers for our company, I have reviewed many benchmarks and still cannot decide on which one would be best to buy. What are your opinions? Maybe you have thought of something I did not. Oh and ill be buying 2 quad core cpus and will have windows server 2008 64 bit OS. The servers will have about 50 or so processors (dataentry employees) connecting to them throughout the work day and the server will be used to store main data files. Post your ideas and thoughts!
