Fix for the corrupted Virtual Machine on the Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 Technical Resources DVD

As an added bonus for the nearly 14,000 TechEd attendees this past week in Orlando, a copy of the updated MOSS 2007 Technical Resources DVD was placed in every attendee's conference bag. The DVD contains the following frequently requested content:

  • Presentation slidedecks from the SharePoint Conference 2006, Project Conference 2006, and SharePoint Conference 2007 EMEA
  • RTM versions of the WSS 3.0 and MOSS 2007 SDKs
  • Top 17 MOSS 2007 case studies
  • TechNet articles and white papers on upgrading from WSS 2.0 and SPS 2003 to WSS 3.0 and MOSS 2007
  • MSDN content on migrating from Microsoft Content Management Server 2002 to MOSS 2007
  • ForeFront Security for SharePoint content
  • Updated links to SharePoint oriented online resources such as the MSDN Dev Centers, TechNet Tech Centers, and the SharePoint Community Portal
  • And much more...

In addition to the content, the DVD contains a fully working Virtual Machine that has been pre-installed with evaluation versions of Windows Server 2003, SQL Server 2005, MOSS 2007, SharePoint Designer 2007, and Office Professional Plus 2007. Unfortunately, due to a rare duplication error, a large batch of the DVDs had one corrupted file that affected the installation of the VM on a host machine. The replacement file and detailed instructions on how to fix the problem are available at https://connect.microsoft.com/Downloads/DownloadDetails.aspx?SiteID=428&DownloadID=7004. If you have any further problems with or questions about the DVD, please leave a comment.

The DVD will likely be updated with more content such as the slidedecks and podcasts from the SharePoint Conference 2007 APAC and distributed to attendees of the upoming SharePoint Connections conference in Las Vegas and the TechEd Europe conference in Barcelona later this year, so if you're planning to attend either of those events, you now have one more thing to look forward to!

Unfortunately, the Image014.part06.rar on several of the DVDs is also corrupted.  Any chance we could get a fix?  Thanks.

Nathan, sorry about that. "Part06" is now available at the same MS Connect site for download.

Thank you so much for fixing the problem(s).  This was a very popular DVD at TechEd, and my excitement turned to disappointment when I couldn't use the VHD.  I'm glad you were able to get a fix out there so quickly!  :)

I am having a slightly more worrying issue, my sophos anti virus software is reporting the presence of Mal ware in autorun.exe on the DVD, anyone else had this one?

If possible, could you please upload the 3 documents in the VHD directory on the DVD?  I can't open them up either.  I'm convinced that they're corrupt as well.  It's pointless to have the VHD if you don't have the instructions on how to long into it.  :)

Even better, would you be willing to email them to me? rdilallo@gmail.com

Thanks,

Robb

# Can I get the DVD?

Is there any way to get the DVD?  I haven't attend the TechED is there any way to get the DVD for non attendees?

Managed to log in to the WIN03_MOSS.VMC. However the OS is asking me to activate it via internet or telephone. Could you please supply me with the OS activation key so I can use sharepoint. Others appear to be having the same problem, can no one from Microsoft sort this problem out.
