Installing SCCM client on Win 7 64bit

[harshad]

Hi, Im trying to install the SCCM client on Windows 7 64bit machines and it fails to install. When I look in task manager it shows that I am installing the 32bit version even though the client files are from the SCCM share. The SCCM version is 2007 SP2. Where am I going wrong ?

Thanks in advance.

SCCM only has an 32bits client. Check the client.msi.log on the client for more information. This log can be found on a 64bit machine in C:\Windows\ccmsetup

Hi Peter, checked the log file and it said that there are no certificates in MY store. I changed the site mode from native to mixed and it seems to be working but I now need to find out what the previous error was. Would I have to install the same certificate that is on SCCM onto my computer ?

Thanks

In Native Mode you need to use multiple certicates. Take a look at this post to see the basic certificates that you need in Native Mode: http://www.petervanderwoude.nl/post/Certificates-for-ConfigMgr-Native-Mode.aspx
