ESXi is not supported if the dc7800 has the 6550 processor, only the 6750 processor. ESX full version will work on it though.

dc7800 works with ESX 3.5 u4 if you change the /etc/vmware/pciid/e1000.xml

<device id="104b"> ----> change this to "10bd"
then run $esxcfg-pciid and reboot

this is from vmware communities
