| In Hyper-V, create a new VM and Install Windows Server 2008 32 bit as the OS (I used Standard to save space).Make sure if you have more than one processor that you enable all of them (under setting for the VM in Hyper-V) for the VM. I have a Core2 Duo and when I turned on both processors it made a HUGE difference! Setup networking for your VM (You should create a new Virtual Network which will allow your host to see the TFS). Both Ben Armstrong and John Paul Cook have good post on setting up your wireless network card to work with Hyper-V. On the VM, the 3 Accounts needed by TFS: TFSServer, TFSSetup and TFSReports. (Actually, I am an Admin so I didn't do TFSSetup) On the VM, in the Server Manager, click on the Roles node and add the Web Server Role. (Search for "How to: Install Internet Information Services 7.0 on Windows Server 2008" in the TFS Installation Guide for the exact settings) Note: The TFS Install guide says IIS 6.0 Compatibility but the actual UI says IIS 6 Management Compatibility – See below |
