Netbackup 7.7 and Windows 2003 Support

I read that Netbackup 7.7 does not support Windows 2003 but does this mean that the backup of a Windows 2003 client is also not supported? What if the client is running Netbacklup 7.6.0.4?

    Special note on Netbackup7.7 there.

    Note: The above technote gets updated from time to time so it is best you download it every quarter.
