Supported Operating Systems to Run DTK Utilities

using 32-bit versions of Microsoft Windows Server 2003 family with Service
Pack 1 [SP1]) and Windows PE 2.0 (created using 32-bit version built on the
Windows Vista kernel).
NOTE:
DTK utilities do not support Windows PE created with any 64-bit version of

For embedded Linux, the DTK utilities support Red Hat
Server (version 4, update 4) 32-bit.
Supported Systems

readme.txt in the root folder, or the Dell Systems Software Support Matrix on
