I've replied via email but it for some reason didn't get through so reposting:
Hi James, yes, the d3d pipeline is disabled on Windows 2003, and starting with build 08 on any server-class OS (for example Windows Server 2008). The reason is that typically people don't care about graphics performance on a server, and also drivers tend to be old/buggy on servers as they are not updated as often. If you have an opinion or use case on why this should not be the case please let us know.
