BOINC on screenless Windows Home Server
I have an HP Windows Home Server (got for free) and it doesn't really do much but just sit here. I'd sell it and buy something else but I can't really do that, so I'd like to install BOINC on it and make it useful. Problem is, I don't exactly know how to run any software on there as the only way I can connect to it (that I know of) is with the windows home server console, which is like a graphical thingy that doesn't allow me to just run an installer on it.

Any ideas?

Try LogMeIn free; it behaves as a console instead of a Remote Desktop Session.

I'd use Real VNC. It works great.
