So it seems the > "advice" I found that audio support has been stripped from WHS is wrong. Mine is a home-built WHS on a motherboard that doesn't officially support WHS or Windows Server 2003. I originally disabled on-board audio in BIOS and after reading your comments I enabled audio and installed the driver prior to running the RS2 install. The WHS has WMP11 hacked-in and once the on-board audio was installed, I was able to directly connect PC speakers and listen to music played by WMP11. However, I believe WHS does not support audio to a remote PC over RDP. This is likely the source of the errors I encountered while installing the RS2 driver over RDP.
By the way, after I got RS2 and Sharkplay working, I uninstalled the on-board audio driver and disabled the hardware in BIOS. Sharkplay works fine without it. My big disappointment now lies with the poor FM reception and the non-existent AM reception. Google helped my find that Carputer folks have modded the RS2 to connect to external FM and AM antennas and I hope to do the same, time permitting. Thanks again for this excellent plugin and I hope my posts will help others get sharkplay working on WHS.
