The problem is windows server 2003 asks activation with no option. I tried to do THIS with registry option. Now I got just login screen, activation window doesn't work.

I am finding tool ISO to activate windows.

Windows Server 2003 is end-of-life for so long now. I would highly recommend to migrate the server to a newer version of Windows. No updates will come out for this OS so having this install connected to the internet will basically invite hackers to steal your data. – LPChip – 2020-02-03T13:23:00.033

From O'Reilly - Windows Server Cookbook
Activating Windows Server 2003

Using a graphical user interface

From the Start menu, select All Programs → Activate Windows.

Select whether you want to activate by phone or over the Internet.

Using a command-line interface

The following command opens the Activation wizard described in the previous section:

%systemroot%\system32\oobe\msoobe /a

There are no options that can activate the computer silently from the command line.

Using VBScript

    ' This code activates a Windows Server 2003 system. ' ------ SCRIPT CONFIGURATION ------ strComputer = "." boolActivateOnline =
True ' If this is true, boolActivateOffline should ' be false
boolActivateOffline = False ' If this is true, boolActivateOnline
should ' be false strOfflineConfirmationCode = "1234-5678" ' if
Activating offline, you need ' specify a confirmation code ' ------
END CONFIGURATION --------- set objWMI = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" &
strComputer & "\root\cimv2") set colWPA =
objWMI.InstancesOf("Win32_WindowsProductActivation") for each objWPA
in colWPA WScript.Echo "Activation Settings:" Wscript.Echo "
Activation Required: " & objWPA.ActivationRequired Wscript.Echo "
Caption: " & objWPA.Caption Wscript.Echo " Description: " &
objWPA.Description Wscript.Echo " Notification On: " &
objWPA.IsNotificationOn ...
