hi steve,

 

thank reply.

 

can use disk install windows server 2003 on other computers?

 

i suggest contacting computer manufacturer confirm whether windows server 2003 supported computer.

 

if so, please refer following article check whether there incompatible hardware devices installed on computer:

in addition, may reload bios settings, unplug unnecessary devices such sound card, network card, printer , external hard drives before installation.

 

hope helps.
