I have a tool that I want to install on my main development box

  • 0

I have a tool that I want to install on my main development box (Windows Server 2008). The installer tells me that it requires Vista. Of course I’m not saying Server 2008 is Vista, but I figure something that installs on Vista should be able to install on Server 2008.

Is there some way (perhaps via a temporary registry change) to get a server 2008 system to appear as Vista for the purpose of installing software?

Thanks!
