Your best bet is a clean install of Windows Server 2008 R2 w/ IIS7 and move the apps across incrementally (Application Request Routing for IIS can help you out with this as well). Also keep in mind that since Win2008R2 Windows Server editions are x64 only - so it is probably a good time for you to make the move from x86 to x64 on the server as well, if you have not already. We're in the middle of doing this for a bunch of customer applications as I write this. -- David Connors (da...@codify.com) Software Engineer Codify Pty Ltd - www.codify.com Phone: +61 (7) 3210 6268 | Facsimile: +61 (7) 3210 6269 | Mobile: +61 417 189 363 V-Card: https://www.codify.com/cards/davidconnors Address Info: https://www.codify.com/contact
