New Windows Home Server Update

27. May, 2009 | by Andrew Edney | 3 Comments

I noticed this morning that a new update for Windows Home Server sneaked out yesterday.

Don’t worry, its not a major bug fix and unfortunately it’s not any new functionality!

It is an update to resolve a WHS Console screen resolution problem.

The update number and KB article is KB963032.

SYMPTOMS

When you open the Windows Home Server Console on a home computer that has a screen resolution that is lower than 1024 × 768, the Windows Home Server console may be displayed incorrectly.

RESOLUTION

An update is available to resolve this issue. This update enables the Windows Home Server console to support low-resolution displays. The lowest resolution that is supported after you apply this update is 1024 x 600.

If you have automatic updates enable you will get it shortly, or you can force an update by going to Settings and clicking Update Now.

KB963032

This update does require a reboot of your Windows Home Server.

    Excellent – the console will now fit on a netbook!

    I have the 2.5 update installed on my EX470. When I installed this update, the transcoding service from the 2.5 update fails to start. I’m trying to figure it out.

    Wondering if you tried the 2.5 upgrade hack and can confirm ?
