The reason I'm asking this is because of a test we have run. We tried running it on a HP desktop running Win 2000 server and it kept failing for one reason or the other. Has anyone else had problems running it on a like system? If so what type of problems have you had?
 
Don't ask things like that you will have hundreds of posts about Exchange 5.5 problems.

Here is a few of mine:

Dynamic Disks, Must be joined to domain, This program may be incompatible with the OS (Setup.exe). I could go on, found workarounds\solutions for most of them. I have run 10 test installs and 5 production installs or reinstalls in the past 3 weeks. The product code is permanently memorised now. I have made new Org\Site and Exmerged mailboxes, Made same Org with new site and replicated, joined existing site and moved mailboxes. All just for testing so I can change NT4 production machines to Win2k server machines and implement a seamless (Yeah Right) Exchange changeover at the end of this month. So I have probably had more than my share of problems, so share some of yours, you will not be the only one.
