Windows Vista Enterprise (official release) install issues on ESX 3.0.1 posted: Nov 16, 2006 11:42 AM
I don't believe VMware ever indicated that ESX would support any flavor of Vista (32bit, 64bit, beta, RTM, or otherwise).
Vista is only supported for use on certain versions of Workstation, GSX, Server, and ACE.
Refer to the Guest OS guide for details of what is and isn't supported, either experimental or official.

No idea when VMware plans to support Vista on ESX 3.x... probably 'soon'.

Lots o' discussion on how to get this to work and a lot of people have asked for the flp file. (keep asking btw, no problem!).
Here's a quick summary:
- IF YOU STILL do not have the driver and are receiving the "Load Driver" pop-up window, verify you have connected the floppy drive! If you had reset the VM and did not have the "connect at power on" selected, but only had "connect", the floppy would have disconnected, so verify this first.
Good luck! hope this helps!
