On the Customer Information page, type your customer name and organization, and then click Next.
On the License Agreement page, read the terms of the license agreement. If you accept them, select Yes. I accept the terms of the license agreement, and then click Next.
On the Component Installation page, accept the default installation location or click Browse to move to the location where you want to install Commerce Server 2007, and then click Next to install the default set of Commerce Server 2007 components.

If you are accessing the software image on a local or remote hard drive, go to the appropriate location, open the Setup folder and double-click the Setup.exe file.
Note
If you begin the installation and you have Commerce Server 2009 already installed on the server, the setup program displays a message stating that you must uninstall the existing version. Click Cancel to exit the installation.
If the setup program detects that some prerequisite software is missing, it displays a message to that effect. Click Close to exit Setup. Install the required software and then resume the Commerce Server 2009 installation.

Note
The installation detects the edition of Commerce Server 2007 you have currently installed on the server and will only list and install the components that are relevant to the edition you have.

On the Microsoft SoftwareLicense Terms page, read the license agreement, select I have read and accept the license terms, and then click Next.
Setup installs the components; a progress report is shown.
On the page that indicates that the installation is complete, click Finish.
