Sounds like I'm missing something. We're looking at using Windows Server 2k8 as a workstation OS as the licensing seems to be more reasonable for vdi. Ah, OK. Then it would be reasonable to add server systems as supported to driver metadata. Alon? If the current driver works then hopefully it's just an ini file change. Can anyone open a bug for this please? (maybe there is one already, no idea..) The Kernel of Win7 x64 and Win2k8 R2 x64 are supposed to be the same,

I've force-installed in in 2008 R2 in the past and it worked just fine. I'll open the bug.

That's why I'm concerned about video and mouse drivers - not getting either of those when I install spice guest tools like I do with Win7 or XP. Please advise. The tools installer should install virtio-serial driver and spice-vdagent ("RHEV Spice Agent" service) for you. If the service is in services.msc but it can not be started, you have a problem with virtio-serial driver.

You can force-install qxl for win 7 64b if you wish to do so, but the question is - why do you need graphic driver on server windows? The spipce-vdagent should be all you need b/c it will give you local mouse.
