I'm trying to install a demo program onto my 2008 server, but the install fails with a message stating that Vista Service Pack 2 is required, but only Service Pack 1 is detected. The property sheet for 'My Computer' clearly shows Windows Server 2008 (x64) and Service Pack 2. All important and optional updates are installed. How can I fix this ? We were able to install the program on an XP client. Thanks!
