Are you mixing up the 64i image as intel? It's for Itanium. For 64 bit intel, you use the 64a image.

Working at a customer who recently purchased some new HP 64bit Windows 7
computers with Intel processors. We are having all sorts of problems
installing Windows7 on them. We had the latest service pack on the iSeries
for Win7. We could not get the installer to work using Setup at all. Then
we tried using the CWINSTALL and that wouldn't work either. Finally, we
found that we had to physically map a drive for the install to work. Then
the funny thing is that we can install the 64bit for AMD processors on the
intel processor, but we can't install the 64bit for intel processors on the
intel processor.

Now we have the Image64a version working, but I am not comfortable with this
as it doesn't match the processor that is in the computer. Has anyone else
seen this?

Thanks
