Hi everybody, as the subject say, i want to install Windows 2003 on a Integrity rx4640, i found a PDF guide called:

HP Integrity Servers for Microsoft Windows
Server 2003
Smart Setup Guide

it makes reference to a Smart Setup CD, i search HP website and i found this address:

its suppoused that the CD is a booteable ISO image file, but it is a .zip file, i have download it an uncompressed the file but isn't a booteable image file.

Do you know what's the correct procedure to install windows 2003 server.

The rx4640 have HP-UX installed on it. but we need to try something SQL databases and we need to install windows 2003 server.

Thanks in advanced

Hi,

Why not? You should burn the ISO file to a CD and boot it. You probably need to set the correct ACPI mode from EFI shell.
After preperation you need to install Win from the Windows for Itanium source.

It isn't a CD.iso or something else.. if i uncompress the .zip file, i have 3 folders (isp, releasenotes, and others) but no an .iso file...

It is a ISO file. I just downloaded it. Take a look at the attachment

Just follow the procedure given in the Smart setup guide for Windows OS installation.
