Re: cannot install 2003 ent rc2
|

|
|
1. I downloaded the iso file rc2 checked debug build of enterprise 2003
2. I make an image to CD using Windows XP's ISO Recorder (free add on) ,
which makes a bootable CD
But when I tried to start the cd from winXP nothing happens.
I click on setup.exe, it says d:\setup.exe is not a valid win32
application
Then I go look inside the i386 directory.
There are no exe files such as winnt32.exe etc
There are only compressed files
(with _ as the last character indicating a compressed files)
Then I went to an existing install of .net server enterprise older
version.
It won't even recognize the CD. I made a similar CD suing same process for
Office 2003 Beta and that auto boots fine
So I am not sure what / where the problem is with this CD
(The Office 2003 beta CD is all CAB files only...if that tells you
anything)
TIA

| Go download the 32 bit version, you downloaded the one built for the Itanium
(64 Bit).

app"......it does not say
"not a vaild win64 app"

| You will get that error when you try to install win64 on a 32 bit x86
platform, if you go to the private cpp newsgroups you'll see this is a
common error. You can not install 64 bit software on a regular computer,
you'll need a Itanium or Itanium II server (which start at $10,000 or more).

| Looks like you are right
I went back & looked.at MSN download center
In fact there is no version explicitly named cheeked for 32 bit listed
There is only one for 64 bit
