Windows Server 2008 R2 support

I noticed that the RC and Beta 2 are blocked on Windows Server 2008 R2 (X64). When I attempt to install, a message is displayed, "The software for DisplayLink Graphics is not supported on this operating system version. Please visit www.displaylink.com/software for an updated driver."

I realise that the configuration may not be supported, however:

I'm currently running "DisplayLink 5.2b1" and it works fine on Win2k8 R2.
Previously, I was running Win Server 2k8 X64 with DisplayLink and it worked great.

I suggest displaying a message that the configuration is not supported, but allowing the installation to continue.
