Nope do not install it it is not supported as per sap note 66971 - it will fail definitely.

Also the sdn site - https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/sap-gui#section13

and the platform availability document supports this.

I have the same problem.

I have Windows Vista Home Premium Operating System.

After checking some of the sdn forums postings,

I created a folder on C drive and downloaded / saved / ran

ftp://ftp.sap.com/pub/sapgui/win/710/compilation2/50088654_4.zip file

and then downloaded / saved latest patch

ftp://ftp.sap.com/pub/sapgui/win/710/patches/gui710_9.exe into the same folder.

Then i tried to run setup.bat file, but was unsuccessful.

Then, I ran SapGuiSetup.exe file .and followed the steps needed for SAP Front End Installation wizard as listed in the screenshots in http://cba.uah.edu/tutorials/sap.html

After restarting the system, I clicked on the SAP Logon icon.

But, I am NOT able to see to see any systems there.

Please help!
