I want to install Server 2K3 on my family's pc, but they want the XP login screen, is it possible to do this? Since 2K3 has XP themes and stuff. Thanks!

No, that's not possible. IMHO, it's also inappropriate to use Server for the family PC.

Ok, If there is not an Microsoft way, what about a 3rd party solution? any that anyone knows of? or at least a way to have drop down menu of users, rather than typing them in. I use 2K3 as a desktop OS because of its much better stablility and performance...and because i know what im doing with it ; ) Any suggestions are appreciated.
