Installing ICM on Windows

IBM Content Manager can be installed on Windows 2000 server or later. To get it to install on a Windows XP system (e.g. for testing the ICM software), change the compatibility mode of the install program to Windows 2000. Now it won't complain about the wrong operating system.

But be aware that no official support is available for running an IBM Content Manager environment on Windows XP. Especially Content Manager OnDemand is very difficult to get it to run on Windows XP. Consider running your content manager environment under Windows 2000 or 2003 within VMware. This works fine.
