Supported Operating Systems and Web Browsers
For supported operating systems and Web browsers, see the Dell Systems
Software Support Matrix located
on the Dell Support website at
support.dell.com .
NOTE: The Dell OpenManage installer offers Multilingual User Interface support on
Windows Storage Server 2003 R2, Microsoft Windows Storage Server 2003 R2,
Express x64 Edition with Unified Storage, Microsoft Windows Storage Server 2003 R2,
Workgroup x64 Edition with Unified Storage, and Windows Server 2008 (x86 and x64)
operating systems. The Multilingual User Interface Pack is a set of language specific
resource files that can be added to the English version of a supported Windows
operating system. However, the Dell OpenManage 6.1 installer supports only five
languages: German, Spanish, French, Simplified Chinese, and Japanese.
NOTE: When Multilingual User Interface (MUI) is set to non-Unicode languages
like Simplified Chinese or Japanese, set the system locale to Simplified Chinese or
Japanese. This enables the Prerequisite Checker messages to be displayed. This is
because any non-Unicode application will run only when the system locale
(also called Language for non-Unicode Programs on XP) is set to match the
application's language.
