Hi,

It would helpful to understand what it is that you are trying to do with your laptop and these various operating systems on it. You want to install Windows Server 2008 but have a host o/s of Windows 8. That said, you are best to install VMware and virtualize your install of Windows Server 2008. I wouldn't bother dual-booting at all as virtualization technology is quite stable.
