Which laptop model can be installed in Windows Server 2003 and PIA?
People,
Hello. The PIA (Weblogic and Tuxedo and SQL Server) and the PeopleTools are compatible with Windows Server 2003 or 2008. But it is not compatible with Windows 7. Because my HP laptop is installed with Windows 7 and can not be installed on Windows Server 2003 or 2008, I need to buy another laptop to install Windows Server 2003 or 2008 PIA and PeopleTools.
I need to know what model of laptop computer can be installed on Windows Server 2003/2008 and double boots several operating systems. Everyone installs Windows Server 2003/2008 and PIA in any laptop? Please tell me the model of the laptop.
Thanks in advance.
LucyAny modern laptop with lots of RAM (> = 4 GB) and hard disk space, within capablities of 64-bit virtualization should be well.
Even if you have Windows 7 OS to host, you can still install a virtual machine software installable on top of your operating system (for example, VMWare), then install an operating system supported as a virtual machine (called guest operating system). You will work on this virtual machine, exactly as it was a server, waiting for your host what OS is also running, no need to dual-boot.Nicolas.

I think Toshiba does not support drivers for Windows Server 2003 for all laptops!
So the only thing you could do is to try the drivers XP (utility chipset) or search the net en some drivers available!
