How do I install Diskeeper 2008 Home Server Edition?

Windows Home Server is a new kind of server for the home. I have used it extensively, and I believe Microsoft may have a hit with this very cool idea. Many vendors are also catching on and creating software that is compatible.

I love Windows Home Server. If you haven’t seen any of my previous posts, they are:

• “Real World: Using Windows Home Server“
• “Real World: Adding Disk Space to a Windows Home Server“
• “Real World: Connecting Your Computers to Your Windows Home Server“

You can even buy a book for your children and wife explaining to them why you need a Windows Home Server in your home.

In this post, I will show you how to install Diskeeper 2008 Home Server Edition and add it to the Windows Home Server console.

Let’s start by installing Diskeeper 2008 as shown in Figure A and Figure B.
