Hi Markus,

I have same situation of Rahul Agarwal.

I bought a laptop with Windows Vista preinstalled.

I am begging in SAP World, i just finished an ABAP Academy and now I wish to install "SAP NetWeaver 7.0 - ABAP Trial"(downloaded from sdn.sp) to practice and improve my studies to certification.

I read some other problems placed in this sdn.sap Forum and got by some people that Windows Vista are not suportted and by anothers that its supported using VMWare.

I tried access the link you mentioned "http://service.sap.com/instguides"

but i am not authorized :o(

Could you please send me the detail about about VMWAre, etc... if its possible ?

Regards,

Many thanks in advance,

Vista is not supported (yet) - it may be in the future.

As of now you need VMWare and

- install Windows 2003 into VMware and use that for your SAP installation

- install Windows XP (will work)

- use the on the SDN provided image with Linux which is just imported to VMWare and booted
