No, there is no way, you may play with whatever switch you want, this will  
be systematically the same. The reason was already explained by Ludovic,  
and here is a reference which base this:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms683215(v=vs.85).aspx

It says:

    Minimum supported client	Windows Vista, Windows XP with SP1
    Minimum supported server	Windows Server 2003

Note even on Windows XP, this may not work, if you've not installed at  
least Service Pack 1.
