Need help install windows on kimsufi
I have a kimsufi KS-4 and I'm trying to install windows server 2012 using this tutorial https://joodle.nl/install-windows-on-a-kimsufi-server/ but I can't connect with RDP. So I tried installing the windows 8.1 and it worked. I don't want to use windows 8.1 mainly cause I don't have a license for that version. Is there any working windows server 2012 image I can use for KS-4?

Get IPMI from your Kimsufi, install Windows 2012 as we are used to do so, check your motherboard model no., copy it & wget its drivers in /dev/sda/drivers through rescue mode, boot it in normal mode, get into IPMI, install LAN driver from /dev/sda/drivers, you'll be good to go.
IPMI not available for kimsufi
With 16 GB RAM in KS-4, you can use Qemu in rescue mode to install Windows

I'm trying to inject the network drivers so I downloaded the Intel 82579V drivers and put it in C:\Windows\System32\drivers. I then rebooted into recovery mode then I tried this command
Dism /Image:D:\ /Add-Driver /Driver:e1c64x64.infbut it gave error
Anything wrong here?
Wrong .inf location, error already says that..
I just tried again with this command
Dism /Image:D:\ /Add-Driver /Driver:C:\Windows\System32\drivers\e1c64x64.infbut still same error
You can just install it on a kvm using proxmox, it really makes no difference in performance using virtio and you can run more than 1 OS that way.

@sc754 I don't want to use proxmox cause I won't get 100% performance but rather it's like 95% performance of my server
