SAP installation on Vista
Thursday, May 8, 20085comments
I tried to Install SAP on my laptop but i was not successfull in it. I have DELL inspirion 1525 laptop on which Vista Home premium is installed. Due HD driver it didnt allowed me installed Windows server 2003 on my Laptop, during installation SATA HD didnt detected and installation aborted. Then i tried SAP installation directly on Vista. I was able to install java but after that when i tried to configure loop back address it didnt allowed me to enter loopback IP into Host file. Evean as i am administrator of Machine. After lots of thing i found that as my OS is Vista Home primium it willl not allow me to do everything on my machine. Now i have given up now i will install Windows XP on my Laptop first then i will try to install SAP for this i will need to downgrade my Current Vista to XP. Lets hope this will resolve my problem.

Hey man! I've been there too, especially with these upgrades, and I know just how annoying it can get when you try too install something and for no known reason it just isn't working! Try one of those blogs with the print-screen shots, they are the best. Good luck!
