Thanks. &nbsp;It turns out my temps were too high. &nbsp;I was able to complete the install after correcting. &nbsp;Thx.

Wow, first time I've ever heard that being a problem. Glad you got it working.

Hi, I am trying to setup a Windows 2008R2 Enterprise Full Installation client on Hyper-V on a Windows 2008R2 Enterprise Full Installation host. &nbsp;However, when the installer gets to the part where it is &quot;Expanding files,&quot; I get an error message that says the source files are corrupt and installation will end. &nbsp;I am installing the client using the same DVD that was used to &nbsp;install the host and so the disk is good and I've also tried installing off an image of the disk as well (SHA-1 checked), but with the same error. &nbsp;As a test, I tried to install the &quot;Core Installation,&quot; and that finished without problem. &nbsp;I've set the client disk space to 256GB and client RAM to 8GB so I think that meets the min requirements. &nbsp;Any thoughts on this? &nbsp;The server has a i930 processor with vt-d enabled and 12GB's of RAM. &nbsp;Thanks, Hammer8

Virtualization is the act of creating a virtual (rather than actual) version of something, including (but not limited to) a virtual computer hardware platform, operating system (OS), storage device, or computer network resources. Virtualization is usually the creation of a system that executes separate from the underlying hardware resources, or the creation of an entire desktop for systems located elsewhere, similar to thin clients.
