How many driver signing options does windows server 2003 support?

How many different driver signing options does windows server 2003 support? 1. Ignore 2. Warn 3. Block Answer: Microsoft uses digital signatures for device drivers to let users know that drivers are compatible with Microsoft Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows 2000, and Windows Me. A driver's digital signature indicates that the driver was tested with Windows for compatibility and has not been altered since testing. Microsoft requires digital signatures for all devices provided in systems that carry the "Designed for Windows" logo. For Windows XP, certain limited application files can also receive digital signatures.There are three different options for driver signing. The option you select will tell Windows what to do when it detects an unsigned driver (this is a driver that has not been tested with Windows). You can configure the driver signing options from the System Properties dialog box. The different options include: Ignore- Install the software anyway and don't ask for my approval. Selecting this option means that any unsigned drivers will be installed on your computer and could cause instability.Warn - Prompt me each time to choose an action. If this option is selected, Windows will present a warning when you attempt to install an unsigned driver. Block - Never install unsigned driver software. By selecting this option, no unsigned drivers will be installed on the computer.
