Exchange Server 2010 setup cannot continue because the local computer is not running Microsoft Windows Server 2008 or a later version.
Exchange 2010 setup requires that the computer that is used for Microsoft Exchange be running Windows Server 2008 or a later version.
To resolve this issue, do the following:
- Run Exchange 2010 setup from a computer that is running
Windows Server 2008 or a later version.
- Upgrade the computer that you want to run Exchange 2010
setup from to Windows Server 2008 or a later
version.
