Just wondering before I do it, I am in the UK and studying for an mcdba which i require sql server 2000 on my laptop but I'm also doing the sql server 2005 exams aswell at the same time,Now I know that you can have multiple instances on sql server on one machine but would I be able to have 2000 and 2005 running on the same machine or would it not be advisableThanks--------------------------You only learn by practicing |

Yes you can and they work fine together - I would recommend taking a look at Virtual PC or VMWare though, you can run all sorts of different test and/or study environments without worrying about them affecting each other.Seehttp://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/virtualpc/default.mspxhttp://www.microsoft.com/technet/try/vhd/default.mspx |
