Any idea how to get an Altiris client to install on 64 bit Windows 7 machine Ive tried to install a few times and it fails each time. Is there a trick?
Thx

DAgent
Make sure that you are using DS 6.9 SP3. And you will need to use DAgent for 64 Bit machines. An example would be:
dagent_x64.msi which would be located in your \\DSSERVER\express\agents\AClient folder

Install parameter
I wonder if you try to run the install locally or thru the console? If you run it locally (probably silent) you might want to use either:
- an INP file with the respective settings you want to apply residing in the same folder as the MSI
- run the MSI with parameters like:
dagent_x64.msi TCPADDR=<your DS name or IP> TCPPORT=402 /qn
Also ensure you do not have any CFG file on the client if you run a silent install as this might conflict with the settings you try to apply and cause the agent not to connect to the DS you refer to.
