Let me assist you with this. It sounds like you're trying to set up Windows Server 2008 R2 on your Dell PowerEdge FS12-NV7 2U. You'll need more than just an ISO; you might want to use a physical installation media or a pre-built installation package. Check the Dell support site for compatibility details and step-by-step guidance.

Use Rufus to burn the ISO onto a USB drive.

Rufus specializes mainly in Linux systems.

You connected Rufus to the USB drive and started the boot process on the server. Now you're seeing a blank screen with a help prompt.

You configured the boot sequence so USB comes first, then the hard drive or network card. Setting this up isn't special—it works just like installing on your desktop.

I believe the ISO we're using might be damaged. Ugh. What's the top OS for running a gaming server like Multicraft? Please share a link if you have one.

There isn't a universal ideal choice for a gaming server. For Minecraft, I discovered it performed well on Linux—specifically using CraftBukkit on CentOS. If you're having trouble setting up an operating system and haven't used Linux before, sticking with Windows might be simpler. Windows 7 would be a good starting point, or if you need a server setup, Windows 2008 R2 is quite lightweight (around 350-500MB memory when idle), which suits Minecraft's Java requirements.
