Windows Server 2008 build 4038

Windows Server 2008 build 4038 is a pre-reset build of Windows Server 2008. On 23 January 2020, this build was listed on a thread by UX.Unleaked blog founder Grabberslasher to be released to BetaArchive's FTP server. It was uploaded on 30 January 2020 in the Datacenter Server SKU in the seventh set of his 33 Longhorn/Vista builds, along with its client counterpart, while an upload of the Standard Server SKU later followed on 11 July 2021. Unlike build 4028, this build uses the older i386 installation method.

Installation

 * It is recommended to set up a dual boot from an older build with this one using either VirtualBox or Virtual PC 2007.
 * Since the autorun app was modified to use the image-based/WIM installation method in place of the legacy i386 setup method, it will fail to launch  as the required files are absent. To start Setup manually, go to the i386 folder and launch   with command-line argument.
