Try this for XP … testing appears to be a great tool … more later … verified great tool.

Feb 2016 Update. Having issue with Windows 7 and Onedrive and syncing folder … so downloaded latest onedrive client (not onedrive for business) from here
https://onedrive.live.com/about/en-us/download/

I had been using SkyDrive/Onedrive for years no issue, but this Feb 2016 all started to fail.  This Windows 7 machine has had all updates. So I hope the new onedrive install will work. Appears it is now working but syncing from Cloud to Local first … NOTE make sure to backup Local Onedrive folder before using Onedrive! … BAD NEWS New Onedrive is overwriting my local drive … APPEARS that two way sync is broken … so only make changes in the cloud and allow OneDrive to sync your hard drive. (I will update as I learn more)

Well the time is here.
  In preparation I installed Windows Server 2012 and created both Windows 2008R2 SP1 VM and Windows Server 2012 VM full install and core install
Core Install


UPDATE – Here is server core 2012 – Hardest part is to get the remote management tools to communicate.  I tried several options using the following links.
http://blogs.technet.com/b/wincat/archive/2012/05/02/what-needs-to-be-configured-to-do-remote-disk-management-of-a-server-core-installation-in-windows-server-2012-via-powershell.aspx
http://4sysops.com/archives/server-core-enhancements-in-windows-server-2012/

NOTE: Do you want to get rid of that annoying server manager in Windows Server 2012? Server Manager > Manage > Server Manager Properties and check the box

Using a fresh Win2012 Server I tried to mount the file as a virtual DVD with no luck.  The file downloaded as an IMG file not ISO.  First issue was an easy fix, just rename with an ISO extension.

A reboot is required during this process. I also noted that a reboot after is also required or you get an error when trying to install SharePoint 2013. I found the fastest way is using PowerShell just type shutdown /r /t 0


The splash screen appeared and just clicked to install the perquisites. 

The file transfer above seemed to take forever as well as the SharePoint Products Configuration Wizard seen below.



If you get an error message installing the standalone version  … Note that I have received an error with both win 2008R2 or Win 2012.

… you need to run the following manual psconfig with the appropriate switch.  Appears that this is an oversight from Microsoft and more about this issue in the reference section from Tomblog  After that runs successful, then start your configuration wizard (found in Start Menu 2008R2 or App in 2012




Using the GUI created a web application and site collection.
Time to Play with my first SharePoint 2013 Team Site – Good Luck
