When you start a resintall are you given the option to repair the current install or will it overwrite your current install and require you to reset up all the users and install all applications.
If you are referring to the process of repairing the OS, there is a option to perform a repair that will not affect the SBS installation in any way unless you have Service Pack 1 installed and you repair with a non-SP1 disk.
Hope this helps you.
