| | Cannot install SP1 on Windows 7 Beta I have installed MS VS 2008 Team Suite with the MSDN help files and now I am trying to install SP1. When I mount the ISO as a virtual drive and double click autorun.exe I see a command window pop up and the error "Program too big to fit in memory" and the command window closes. I made sure that I had max RAM available (1.2 GB available of 2 GB on my laptop). I am not sure how to get around this issue so that I can use 2008 on my Windows 7 Beta machine. Any ideas? |

Windows 7 is now commercially available. Purchase the final release, reformat, install and then see what happens. Mike. |

It's not your memory. Your downloaded ISO file is likely corrupt. Re-download it, and make sure the verify it. The MSDN site typically mentions the hash values. You may also try running setup.exe directly, but if your download is corrupt this is not recommended, even if it manages to run. -- J. |
