This issue has been solved. See solution.

Recently, got to see some of our customer is trying to install SEP MR4 MP1a or MP2 on windows 7 Beta OS, here is information may be valuable.

Please check MR4 MP2 installation_guid.pdf in the install package Documentation folder,, windows 7 is not included, that means officially MR4 can not install on windows7
But in SEP RU5 installation guide, windows 7 was included, and Symantec QA is testing SEP RU5 compability with windows 7.
The target release date for SEP RU5 is in the mid of September 2009, if RU 5 can be realease by then or not, let's wait and see.

I agree that windows 7 is not officially supported by symantec till mr4mp2.It will be in MR5---that means if you face ny issue symantec/Support is not responsible.

However it hs been tested by many who are active on this forum including me that you can install SEP mr4 ,mr4mp1a and mr4mp2..On Win7 with some minor tweaks and without PTP and NTP and it works fine..

VMWARE-- SEP 12.1 vs McAfee vs Trend Micro
