How to install Windows 2003 server on Windows 8

-

i bought dell inspiron 3521 last week. came windows 8 oem

my configuration

1 tb hdd

8 gb ram

core i5 1.5

i tried install 2003 cd, got blue screen error. when researched , fount need change sata settings in bios ahci ata. , installation went ahead, issues that, @ installation windows 2003 server showing complete 1tb. have made partitions in windows 8. not shown. exited setup , restarted. got error message saying windows 8 corrupted , need recover form recovery disk. restarted , changed bios settings  ahci , windows 8 worked normal.

my observations windows 8 in working in ahci mode windows 2003 need ata mode.

i tried create vhd in widows 8 using thsi blog, options disabled.

can 1 guide me how can have dual boot original windows 8 came lappy , windows 2003.

i contacted dell regarding said don't support 2003.

pbl (visual studio 2010 professional, win 7 64 bit ultimate)

ws2003 quite old , unlikely to contain necessary ahci storage controller drivers such new machine.
may able use "f6" driver floppy disk method supply necessary driver during ws2003 setup.
(you need usb floppy disk drive, since machine doesn't have floppy drive. assuming machine can correctly handle usb-fdd)

this thread explains little more: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/forums/en-us/winserversetup/thread/12fc8159-bca4-4e41-aa2c-304a3e213d16/

the driver machine might 1 (but have no idea if suitable ws2003):

or, if have windows8pro, use client hyper-v run ws2003 inside vm?
if don't have win8pro, maybe use hypervisor virtualbox/etc?
