I am trying to install an Edge Server for Exchange 2007 on a Windows 2003 Std. server. It will not let me, why and how can I get it to work, I don't have a second 64bit server I can just sit in a DMZ for mail services. Thanks David

32 bit is not supported Reinstall your server with x64 Windows 2003 SP1 OS Deli

You can install Exchange 2007 on a 32bit windows machine. But then you need the 32 bit version of Exchange.Remmber that this is NOT supported in production.

I would have installed x64 on the system if it was supported. Now I have to go and buy new hardware and probably redo the network layout. What a pain.......

Please check your current processor. Intel and AMD are shipping servers for almost 3 years now that support x64 Just check your CPU it might just support x64 Deli

I have checked and it is not 64 bit capable. but thanks anyways. Looking into VMware or Xensource solution for the time being.

VMware Workstation 5.5 introduces full support for virtual machines with 64-bit guest operating systems, running on host machines with the following processors: AMD Athlon 64, revision D or later AMD Opteron, revision E or later AMD Turion 64, revision E or later AMD Sempron, 64-bit-capable revision D or later (experimental support) Intel EM64T VT-capable processors (experimental support) http://www.vmware.com/support/ws55/doc/intro_supguest_ws.html

technically, though - this wouldn't be supported either: Support policy for Microsoft software running in non-Microsoft hardware virtualization software.
