Server 2008 R2 x64

I decided to try and install S2 and running the controller from Server 2008 R2.

S2 installed without issue and the hard diagnostics can see my controller (1602W). I was able to load my LMS files; however, I got a Windows Media player error when attempting to play the show. The error was "Cannot find wmp.dll". Follow the steps below for installing Windows Media Player on Server 2008



1. Enable "Desktop Experience"

2. Install "Windows Media Services 2008 for Windows Server 2008 R2"
