Nuke on windows server?

I've been having problems with my current host which is linux based. They are offering me to move to a windows server and i'm curious would phpnuke run on it? I don't want to move over and suddenly half my site doesn't work lol. Are there any known issues with nuke running on a windows platform or anything that I should be aware of?

You will have more problems on IIS. I, of course, would be happy to host you and you will not have those problems Wink

That doesn't mean anything to me. What kind of problems are you having that a host would offer/recommend windoze over *nix?

Oh, I was just showing you the package/price that they offer. I don't think that you offered packages along the same lines that's all. As for what they say it's kind of been a bad week lol. First they claimed their was a security breach on the server and the data center shut it down, then they said since it's down they were going to replace the hard drive. This fiasco took 3 days of downtime total. Finally my site backup was in place and the very next day I go to do some site work and my ftp is denied. So I go and log into control panel, and lo and behold I get an error message the drives are full please send a mail to the admin LOL. So I sent in a letter and I got this in return:

We'll look into your problem, but if you'd like to switch to the
equivalent Windows plan we'll credit you 50% on next months invoice.[Quote]

As for hosting yeah i'm starting to look because I don't feel like going through this asshatery again. I have one guy in my game guild that owns a hosting company but he runs all windows too. I still need to talk to him and see if he is able to install what is needed.
