I am not quiet sure for what reason you need sound on your server ...
anyhow ..
What's in the System panel? Does it correctly list your soundcard w/o
Errors?
Do you have the correct drivers, for W2003 Server?

I agree with Franz. Why would you want/need sound on a server? Don't use a
server as a workstation...

And the issue isn't with your speakers, it's with your computer's sound
card, most likely a driver issue. Neither your hardware or your operating
system knows or cares about speakers themselves.

He's probably talking about USB speakers (which don't use a sound card
and thus need a driver).

D'ya know, I'd never even heard of such a thing. :)

Are we all forgetting that on Server 2003 sound is disabled in services. Open
services, find 'Windows Audio', change it to automatic and start it.

I can't say I forgot that which I never knew. As implied by my earlier
replies, I've never even tried to use sound on any server!
