Hi Everyone
I would like to ask if Gigabyte GA-EX58-EXTREME compatible or can run with EXSI 4.1?
Check out the whitebox HCL on www.vm-help.com.
You may be able to install ESXi to your motherboard. The problems usually come from the embedded components like disk controllers and network cards. Disk controllers are less of a problem but using the controllers onboard RAID is not supported. NICs are the most common problem. Your board uses Realtek NICs which are not supported. You would need to find a supported NIC. You can check http://www.vm-help.com/esx40i/esx40_whitebox_HCL.php or http://vmware.com/go/hcl for a supported GB network adapter (Intel and Broadcom are well supported)
