Windows Server 2008 R2 install: what is ENTERPRISEV

installationwindows-server-2008-r2

I have a Windows Server 2008 R2 installation disk. There are quite a few choices for the version of Windows Server to install (Datacenter, Web, Standard, etc.)

But there are several versions that have a "V" version. For example, there is a choice for ENTERPRISE and one for ENTERPRISEV. Here is a screen shot:

What is the difference between these two?

I've never seen this before. Can you post a photograph or screenshot?

You should see 8 choices, one for each version of Windows, and for each version you can choose server core (no GUI) or full.

If this is something new I suspect it's just that version with HyperV pre-installed.

This is what you should be seeing:
