Dear All, we have isnstalled windows 2008 r2 debug version, and the server is acting very slow. Is there a way to go to the normal version without reinstalling windows? Thanks, Kyriakos

Hi kyriakos, AFAIK, Windows Server 2008 R2 have datacenter/enterprise/standard edition. There is no debug version. For the installation mode, there are full installation and core installation. Can you describe more in detail?Thanks and Regards David Shen MVP (File System Storage) HP Enterprise Services: Solution Architect Microsoft Storage Team - File Cabinet Blog View my MCP Certifications My Blog Contact me

Hello, I would agree with Scorpio. I think that you are speaking about Safe Mode or Core Mode. If you are speaking about Core Mode then going to a full installation require re-installing. If this is a safe mode, refer to that: http://www.howtofixcomputers.com/forums/windows-xp/exit-windows-safe-mode-115865.html This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties or guarantees , and confers no rights.

There is a word "Debug" after "Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.". I would like to configure the windows server to enterprise edition rater than "enterprise debug edition". Anyone could give me a hand? Thank you very much.

Dear All, the problem i have is the same as Patrick LIGL below. Thanks,
