We published the following article to the NComputing Knowledge Base: “X550 and X350 vSpace 6 Software Release X-6.2.3.6” • KB Article URL: Product: NComputing vSpace for X350/X550 desktop virtualization kits Version: X-6.2.3.6 for 64-bit versions of Microsoft Windows Server® 2008 R2, 2008 R2 SP1, Windows MultiPoint Server® 2010 (WMS), WMS 2010 SP1, WMS 2011 and single user instances of Windows 7 (64-bit) and Windows 7 SP1 (32-bit and 64-bit). Note that this release does NOT support any other earlier 64-bit Windows operating systems (e.g. It does NOT support Server 2008 64-bit). This vSpace software can be configured to deliver a Windows 7 end-user experience through vSpace virtual desktops running on Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Multipoint Server 2011/2010, and single-user instances of 32-bit and 64-bit Windows 7 SP1. (For licensing details, see,, and ) These release notes contain important information regarding this vSpace software release for X-series products and should be read in their entirety. Also, please review the X-series User Manual available for download at What’s New – Summary: This is a maintenance release that replaces the previous released version X-6.2.2.14 of vSpace for 64-bit operating systems and replaces the previous released version vSpace X-5.2.4 for Windows 7 32-bit (adding SP1 support).
The following is a summary of the key changes: • Added NComputing tab and link to NComputing Management Console from within the Windows MultiPoint Manager (on WMS 2011 only). • Support for Windows 7 SP1 32-bit is included with this vSpace 6 release as an upgrade for customers running vSpace 5 (X-5.2.4.). • For customers upgrading from vSpace 5, the key changes include: o Use of new and improved NComputing Management Console (NC Console) that simplifies management and delivers more capabilities to administrators (see description of vSpace 6 console in user manual) o Ability to more seamlessly transition to 64-bit operating systems, since the same vSpace 6 software can be used for current and new deployments. O Overall performance, efficiency and compatibility improvements that come from running with the latest vSpace 6 architecture • Single.exe installer applies to all supported operating systems (separate.MSI installer files are also included for 64-bit and 32-bit installation convenience) Important notes on this release: • Upgrades from vSpace 5 require an uninstallation of the vSpace 5 software prior to installing vSpace 6. Also, you will need to register the new vSpace 6 software.
• Registration Required: This vSpace release includes a trial license and must be registered together with the X-series PCI cards using the NComputing Registration Wizard to allow operation beyond 1 hour of session time. If vSpace on the host computer is not registered, trial mode host behavior will last for 30 days, and thereafter, NO X-series connections can be made. However, the vSpace registration wizard can still be run from the host system after the trial period expires. Registration reminder popups will periodically be displayed on the host console session and inside user sessions to encourage registration before the trial period expires.DO NOT try to register the system without X-series cards installed. • No reset of trial period: The trial license period begins when any version of vSpace is first installed on a host. Note that uninstalling and then reinstalling vSpace does not reset the 30-day trial period.
If you are installing this software on a system which previously had ANY version of vSpace installed (for example, when upgrading Windows Server 2003 to Windows Server 2008 R2), then this vSpace code will normally need registration before any X-series devices can connect. • Online and Offline registration options: Online registration can be done if TCP ports 80 or 3630 are open to the internet. Offline registration can be done by emailing the file created by the registration wizard to: • A second reboot after the installation of vSpace may be required. After the first reboot, sessions may not connect, in this case a second reboot will be required. • Do not install on a U-series or L-series host or on top of any beta software: Do not install this on an OS where vSpace for the U- or L- series (or any beta version) was previously installed. If your system has vSpace for U- or L-series installed, you will need to start from a clean OS installation. However, this version can be installed to update the previous X-series version X-6.2.1 • Do not install in a virtual machine: the X-series is not supported with virtual machines.
The operating system and vSpace must be installed directly on the physical hardware. 
• Licensing server required: Microsoft RDS CALs (for Server 2008 R2) or WMS CALs (for WMS) are required to use the system in a multi-user configuration.
