Could I install WLK1.3 on Windows server 2003 SP2?

Question

We need to test windows 7 beta's Portable Media Devices Testing for MTP.

So we have to install WLK1.3.

Actually, we installed WLK1.3 on Windows server 2003, and we can create a submission.

If we got all pass of our submission, could we submit the submission to microsoft?

I saw the information that Windows server 2003's submission only could use WLK1.2, is it true?

Someone install WLK 1.3 or 1.2 on Windows Server 2003 R2 or SP2, but I install on Windows Server 2003 SP1 only.
Someone seem some problem when Server2003 system test in WLK 1.3, I will suggest use WLK 1.2 for Server2003 test.

 Clarification about Usage of WLK 1.3 for Windows Server Submissions

WLK 1.3 is not supported for Windows Server system submissions. Server partners should continue using WLK 1.2 to make system submissions. This includes submissions for the Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2008 operating systems.

WLK 1.3 is supported for Windows Server device submissions. This includes device submissions for the Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2008 operating systems.

Overview of Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Logo Testing

The following list describes which versions of the Windows Logo Kit (WLK) apply to the various Windows Server logo programs:

. WLK 1.2:
oo Windows Server 2003 system
oo Windows Server 2003 device
oo Windows Server 2008 system
oo Windows Server 2008 device

. WLK 1.3:
oo Windows Server 2003 device
oo Windows Server 2008 device

. WLK 1.4:
oo Windows Server 2003 system
oo Windows Server 2003 device
oo Windows Server 2008 system
oo Windows Server 2008 device
oo Windows Server 2008 R2 system
oo Windows Server 2008 R2 device

System testing details:

. WLK 1.4 will not contain 64-bit Windows Server 2008 tests. You must use the Windows Server 2008 R2 tests in WLK 1.4 for all 64-bit testing. Systems that pass Windows Server R2 64-bit testing will also be granted the Windows Server 2008 logo.

. There is no Windows Server 2008 R2 x86 logo program, because there is no 32-bit version of Windows Server 2008 R2. You can still achieve the Windows Server 2008 x86 logo using WLK 1.4 and the following steps:
oo The system must pass Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 testing.
oo The system must run the Windows Server 2008 x86 test in WLK 1.4.
oo Submission can then be made.

. Systems that qualify for the Windows Server 2008 logo must be refreshed using the Windows Server 2008 R2 tests in WLK 1.4 in order to gain the Windows Server 2008 R2 logo.
. Systems that achieved Windows Server 2008 Supported status must be retested for Windows Server 2008 R2 Supported status.

. Systems that earn some Windows Server 2008 R2 additional qualifications (AQs) will automatically be granted the same AQs for Windows Server 2008. This includes the High Availability, Fault Tolerant, and Dynamic Partitioning AQs.

Steve
