Thanks - so I just need a standard VM fully installed running Win 7 Ent x64 sp1?

Hi, great series, but i'm a little confused by this step Step 2. Import Computer Information We need our Virtual Machine to be imported into SCCMs database before we can add it to our Build and Capture collection so lets do that. In the ConfigMgr console, click on Assets and Compliance, Devices, and in the Ribbon click on Import Computer Information. If you havn't already created a Virtual Machine do so now, we need one with 1 gig of Virtual Ram and we need to know it's MAC address. The link points to the beta 1 and the use of HyperV - I'm using vmware, so presumably no issue, but I'm not sure which sections of this link I'm supposed to use, and where this then links back in with this page. Does this make sense? Thanks,

Thanks Peter

Thanks Anyweb, the most comprehensive gudei I've seen, and I'm optimistic this may actually get SCCM installed. I've one further question. The reason I'm installing SCCM 2012 is to use MS ForeFront 2012, and this I believe required WSUS Can I simply follow the guide here http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/485-how-to-install-wsus-3-0-sp1/ and istall WSUS 3SP2 on my SCCM server? Thanks, J

Thanks Ramlan. Hi Peter - the question was, which one of the listed updates is required (the hotfix link provides in the post directed me towards the 5 listed files) - the answer, as provides by Ramlan Cheers, J
