IE7 not compatible with OS?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello -built a fresh server with 2003 STD/R2/SP2, + all current updates,

including .NET framework 3.0. When I try to install IE7, a message pops up

that this version of IE is not compatible with this system.

 

I do have 3.0 installed on XP workstations with IE7, but 3.0 installation is

only successful if IE7 is already installed on the XP machines.

 

Anyone else seen this issue?

RE: IE7 not compatible with OS?

 

I tried to install IE7 on my DC today also (2003 SP2). Same error. If you go

to Windows Update and select Custom, you will also notice it does not give

you an option to install IE7.

If you're doing this for group policy additions, i believe you will have to

downlad and install

this should solve your issue -worked for me. Odd though that windows update

doesn't automatically detect...
