> What's the reason for making the DirectX pipeline work only on non-server > Windows OS? Is there any way to get around this issue?
The main reason is that the available drivers for the server os-es typically lag behind the client versions, so we had seen many issues with those older drivers. Also, the admins normally aren't eager to update to the newer driver versions even when they're available. The second reason is that arguably graphics performance isn't that important on a server machine, stability is the main goal. For example, by default Aero isn't even installed on Server 2008 to my knowledge.
