Hi B2MosesK

The easiest way to install Windows on a Dell PowerEdge server is to use the Dell Systems Management Tools and Documentation DVD ISO (SMTD)

Here's a SMTD 7.3:-
http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/04/DriverDetails/Product/poweredge-1950?driverId=CMY20&osCode=WNET&fileId=3289202330&languageCode=en&categoryId=SZ

Just download and burn this ISO into a DVD if you do not have in hand. Boot from it and follow the prompt. It is quite straight forward.

Let us know how it goes.
