When installing Windows Server 2008/R2 for installation of EEE, the following components must be installed:-

File Services
- Required on the DB Server

The above roles and features must be installed prior to SQL Server being installed. Windows Updates should also be run to install all Windows updates which include security updates, .NET Framework 3.5 + SP1, etc.
Enabler
Enabler is fully compatible with Windows Server 2008. If using FTPAgent to transfer files between EEE & Enabler, then please note that FTPAgent is NOT compatible with the 64 bit version of Windows Server 2008 (or 64 bit version of any Windows operating system).
