I want to install Ax 2012 in my local machine. Does anyone know the steps involved in installing Ax2012
Highlights are you need 64 bit for the AOS, Help Server and EP (if you want it). I agree with the previous answer, 8GB memory is minimum. We tried on 4GB but it just won't work.
Our developers all have 2012 installed on their windows 7 (64 bit) machines. Remember you need SQL reporting installed to run ANY reports. You can run AX 2012 without SQL reporting just fine, but you won't have any reports at all (no invoice and packing slip etc). Some of our guys have reporting and EP all running on their win7 machines. Remember that that is officially not supported though.
