This is the last part of MED-V Step by Step Setup Guide which will cover the MED-V Client and Management Console installation. I will perform this installation in a Windows 7 operating system with 1.5 GB of memory. You need to have a machine with minimum of 1.5 GB memory in order to perform this installation. FYI, MED-V Client and Management Console only support Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7 with minimum of 1.5 GB memory.
First of all, we’ll need to install Virtual PC 2007 SP1 located inside the MED-V folder and the required updates within the same folder.
After you’ve installed Virtual PC 2007 and all the required updates, execute the MED-V Client installer to kick start the setup. After you executed the installer, a prerequisites will check if you passed all the requirements.
