    Hello,

    How much size of CRM VPC Latest version

  • Anu,
    You’ll download a total 4.7 GB of 7 RAR files… just enough to burn to one DVD, I think. After extracting, the actual VPC is about 16 GB.

  • vijayam

    I want to complete information about the Microsoft Dynamics CRM

  • Hussein

    i’m wondering what is the password for this new CRM VPC?
    it’s not included in the VPC documents and the old VPC password dosen’t work.

    Thanks in advance.

  • Hussein,

    I think the login info appears in the background as a wallpaper as soon as you get to the login screen. Nevertheless, here’s the info you need:

    User: Administrator
    Password: pass@word1

    You’ll find that this is the same login info for all of the previous CRM VPC releases as well.

  • Emily Kyler

    Do you know why this only available for Partners? I can download the VPC dated 2/2008 from the Microsoft site but cannot get to this one with the Accelerators.

  • Emily,

    Unfortunately I don’t know if the VPC will be released for all users. Only bet right now is to ask someone with PartnerSource access to login briefly for you and access the link.

  • The above password doesn’t work, any other ideas?

  • Neil,

    The user and password I provided above should definitely work. Menno’s site also has the same posted.
    http://www.tekoppele.com/Blog/post/2009/04/17/Microsoft-Dynamics-CRM-40-VPC-(2009-Edition).aspx

    Check for the usual login problem suspects, like the wrong domain or NumLock setting. Good luck!

  • Simon

    Remember the VPC use the US keyboard. So the actual password when using the UK keyboard is: pass”word1 (i.e. shift + 2 === the ‘@’ symbol on the US keyboad.

  • Chris

    Help! I can’t get in! I have the April 09 version from PartnerSource and have it fired up in Virtual Server in x64 machine, attached it to a network card and everything seems fine, except the login #@!# Is accepting RDP turned on? Am using litwareinc\administrator and pass@word1

  • Chris

    OK, I changed my internet security setting to LOW for local intranet and I can now reach the server login screen and the password works as described – guess cross-domain or some such problem. Chris

  • KP

    Hi gys , I want to learn Dynamics CRM. Will it be possible for someone to provide me with the VPC download …I will really appreciate the help.

  • Lel

    Where did the downloads go!!!!
    I need them now!!!

  • Lesley,

    I confirmed that the link still works. Sorry but you may need PartnerSource access to the website. Good luck!

    -Christian

  • Clyde

    Christian,
    I have PartnerSource access, but when I visit the page the links to the individual rar files have been removed and a note added that says “VPC temporarily removed but will be replaced in the near future.” Any idea what may be going on with this?

    Thanks, Clyde

  • Not sure, but you can try the below link for a newer VPC to download.

  • Chris2

    Anyone have a link to a VPC version that users can use? Assuming that 2009 only works for partners, is there a 2008 version worth using?

    Thanks

  • Neil2

    In the VPC demo, does anyone know the login/username for theon the eService Customer Login Fabrikam page?

  • mardukes

    Isn’t the 2008 VPC somewhat worth less? The server OS times out after an hour due to the trial license being expired.

  • mardukes,

    Totally agree. Perhaps you missed my update edit at the beginning of the page, where there is a link to a new VPC that incorporates Contact Center functionality. You’ll need PartnerSource access though.

  • Jason

    I really need to download this, have they release one you can actually download (i.e. Link works?) that is still active in 2012 ??
