Dont go through the painful procedure of installing and converting your Cisco windows appliance version. straightaway install it on the ESXi or Workstation. Create a vm with 2 GB memory and 160 GB hard drive. Install from the Cisco OS cd. before installing UCCX repair your installation with the windows 2003 cd.
Then its done :) On Mon, Feb 13, 2012 at 6:15 AM, CCIEVoiceKP <ccievoic...@gmail.com> wrote: > Here's what I used: > > > For lab testing only install normal 2003 Server, the run regedit; > > > > Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 > > > > [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cisco Systems, Inc.\Systems Info\OS Image] > > > > "Version"="2003.1.1" > > > > > > Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 > > > > [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cisco Systems\Model] > > > > "Hardware"="7835H05" > > > > "Memory"="2048" > > > > "Speed"="2333" > > > > > On Sun, Feb 12, 2012 at 11:55 AM, Emanuel Damasceno <aedamasc...@gmail.com > > wrote: > >> KP, would you mind sharing the Registry Hacks? >> >> *Emanuel Damasceno* >> CCNP Voice >> >> >> >> >> >> >> On Sun, Feb 12, 2012 at 6:54 PM, CCIEVoiceKP <ccievoic...@gmail.com>wrote: >> >>> I installed a win2003 server on ESXi ....
