      <description>&lt;P&gt;My first question is, what version of vCenter are you trying to install?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;My second question is why on earth do you want to install vCenter on a 20 year old OS ? Are you trying to break some kind of record &lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://communities.vmware.com/html/@289AD012C70581C0618D88C2AB55924A/emoticons/1f602.png" alt=":face_with_tears_of_joy:" title=":face_with_tears_of_joy:" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;PS you may get more focused help if you add a reference to vCenter on Windows 2003 in your subject title&amp;nbsp;&lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://communities.vmware.com/html/@90D223CDF4C4491D7DFF693BB5C76865/emoticons/1f609.png" alt=":winking_face:" title=":winking_face:" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;HTH&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Does that mean you want to install vSphere 5?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The real question is why would you want to want to use such old versions?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I'm confused. The initial question was how to get vCenter working on Server 2003&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;When confirming the version, you then mentioned vCenter Converter which is a completely different product.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Maybe if you explain what it is you're trying to do, it will be clearer. Are you trying to convert a physical 2003 server to a virtual machine?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Got it, so you're trying to use VMware converter to P2V a Windows 2003 server. We got there in the end&amp;nbsp;&lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://communities.vmware.com/html/@69B3F769431606C22F8503450B1B2022/emoticons/1f60a.png" alt=":smiling_face_with_smiling_eyes:" title=":smiling_face_with_smiling_eyes:" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The next question is what issue or errors are you seeing? Its been a long time since i've done anything with Server 2003, but i'm sure it P2V'd just fine back in the day with previous versions of VMware converter.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;That said, in all seriousness,&amp;nbsp; is there not an opportunity to build a new VM on a supported version of Windows and ditch this server?&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; From a Cyber Security perspective, You really shouldn't be running servers with 20 year old Operating System's, unless you have no choice. I know it can happen, but its quite unusual, unless its running software or hardware that will only work on Server 2003?&amp;nbsp; In which case I hope its either off the network, or heavily isolated&amp;nbsp;&lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://communities.vmware.com/html/@9096AC4BBA0718E6B18FDB51D30A5493/emoticons/1f44d.png" alt=":thumbs_up:" title=":thumbs_up:" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;HTH&lt;/P&gt;</description>
