Thank you Al for your time, Yes it is about "the version Enterprise Microsoft Exchange 2000" in bêta mode. I buyed an enterprise RTM licence and CD media for this Educational version. Actually, we don't have Windows 2003 server and we don't want to deploy this version for a while if it's possible because we do not deploy a too recent version taking into account our limited technical resources. To return to the version of the media, when I start the setup, i have the choice between standard or enterprise version, therefore CD offers the possibility of the two versions to us. But, the only difference i see, is the service pack is not include in this cd. So when we installed the demo version we updated to Exchange sp3. Aso, when i reinstall from the Control panel, all the files are copied from the cd to the hard disk and the setup 'said' : "You must reinstall all service pack because..." This is a really curious and very unpleasant problem. Thank's again Roch. > Roch, it sounds like you're trying to reinstall a version that is different > from what you installed in beta.
