Hello.
I installed Windows Server 2008 R2, and when I tried to install my ATI Radeon 3600 series video card the installer said Im using a non-supported version of Windows (I tried the Win7 64 bit drivers because I couldnt find drivers for WinServer2008 R2).

You are right about using Windows 7 x64 drivers, because in 99% of the cases the hardware manufacturers won't add Windows Server 2008 R2 drivers on their site (which are exactly the same as Windows 7 x64 drivers) because then they also have to support them.

Anyway, have you tried installing the drivers manually in stead of using the installer? See the following page how to do that: Win2008R2Workstation.com - Drivers - Manually.

Good luck! :)
