Welcome to the forum.... Which version of system update are you trying to use? The correct one for Windows7/2008 server is 4.01.
Collection = T430 - T500 - R400 - X300 - T61 (14" WXGA+) - R61 (15" SXGA+) - T60 - X40 - T43p - T43 - T42p - A30P

Whoa! Kind of loud there...

So, did you come here seeking help, or just to let us know that System Update is not working for you?
There are others (not me) who do have System Update working on Windows 2008 server, although I doubt it's on a T41.
Might be some useful info here:
