Windows 2003 comes with Compatibility Mode, Right click Setup.exe (or whatever the EXE is), click Properties, Compatibility, enable it and select Windows XP from drop down list.
OP
i tried that, still same message appears."need winxp to install". so i copied the files on to my hardrive and changed the properties there...still no effect. would i need a hex editor or something to modify the msi file?
You'll have to use ORCA to modify the .msi, and remove any OS checks/dependancies.
As a comparason
DOOM 3 wont install on Win2k3 without using a "/a" with the setup.exe
Perhaps it might be worth a try using setup.exe /a
Adam had the correct idea about OS dependencies within the MSI db.
