This seems absolutely ridiculous to me, however when you try to install Exchange 2007 the Readiness Checks will fail with the following error:

“Exchange 2007 cannot be used with the version of Windows operating system running on this computer”

To install Exchange 2007 on a Windows Server 2008 machine you need to run the installer for Exchange 2007 SP1. You can find a download of the Service Pack below (841MB)
