How to install Windows 2003 Server virtual appliance

Hi all

I installed VMware server 2.0 and created a new virtual machine.

Now, I want to install the microsoft windows 2003 Server virtual appliance. I downloaded the same from the microsoft site and there is an .exe file and two .rar files.

I want to know how to install these files on my virtual machine.

You help me please about this request.

Thank you and best regards,

Himanshu

Server 2.0 won't open it without conversion because it is in the format Microsoft Virtual PC/Virtual Server that's why you need to go through the converter.

When you run the converter, select 'Other' as the source type, find the .vmc file and destination choose "Other virtual machines" and give it a name and a location where to put the files it produces.

  • How to install windows 2003 Server R720?

    I read that with r720, u can not install windows server 2003 directly, you must install as a VM, but I read something to do good readers for the raid controller or something like that my r720 has PERC H710: the INTEGRATED RAID CONTROLLER. If someone could provide markets like me can install 2003 and if there are custom commands or software, I need to do

    Thank you

    Why not install from 2003 as a virtual machine?

    There is no driver for the H710, 2003.  You can "try" this:

    2008 x 86 for H710m on R720:
    http://www.Dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/04/DriverDetails/product/PowerEdge-R720?driverId=H9W18&osCode=WLHS1&FILEID=3366404030&LanguageCode=en&CategoryID=SF

    You need to download the 'hard drive' version of the pilot and run to extract its content before using it.

    Also keep in mind that PERC does NOT support non-RAID, so you MUST configure/initialize RAID in the CTRL-R FRONT utility any can readers seen by the operating system, even if you find drivers that work.

  • can I install Windows 2003 server in my computer hp laptop pav14-v021tu

    Hai

    My system came with windows 8, when I bought.

    But now I thing I finstalling windows server 2003 in this laptop, I heard from my local technician some computers laptops hp does not support Server 2003 (he said need some drivers from hard disk sata hard or something like that)

    As I have not super-hotel with this stuff,

    some we can't so please say argues this model the windows sever 2003 if so this laptop has no other than the Server 2003 addinational drivers to work

    Thank you

    Hello:

    The technician is correct on the sata drivers are needed.

    The problem is that your laptop is an Intel 4th generation of processor and chipset of the 8 series.

    Intel develops not all drivers sata for this chipset, so windows XP and 2003 server will not install on the PC with this chipset.  Nor are there at - he graphics drivers for Windows 2003 server, and probably many other features would not have driver support for hardware that your PC has.

    Hello

    I m wondering that you want to install Windows server on a laptop...

    In any case, it is a known problem and also happens on XP and Vista. To fix this you need to use the laptop SATA driver or you change the SATA mode in the BIOS by AHCI compatible, then you don't need a driver.

    Here are some instructions that might be useful for you:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD9401AN0000R01.htm

    I do not know if you will get a driver for Server 2003 but you can try the XP driver and in the worst cases, it must use compatible mode m.

    Let me give you a little advice: If you have other questions, use the forum search. You can find hundreds of discussions about this.

    Hello

    AFAIK, this device was shipped only with Windows Xp. In this case only the driver for this OS are available.
    Windows 2003 server edition is not a common operating system, and unfortunately, I do not know if you will find anywhere the right Toshiba drivers for this operating system of m.

    I would like to know how to install Windows Server 2008 and Windows 7 Enterprise from a USB key, please.

    I'm not trying to run either on the USB key, I just need to know how to install from a USB key. I tried Multiboot, grub for DOS and other, but they do not seem to work :/

    I am going through a book that uses these two to form Microsoft MCITP: Server 2008 Administrator and if I could install these Via USB, this would save my records and a lot of hassle... basically just for convenience, as everything that I need will be on a stick * lol *.

    Otherwise, I'll have to use discs instead :)
