Hi,
Is it possible to install the SQL 2008 standard on a windows xp proffessional os with sp2.
I have checked on the net, it says, we can. But still there is lot of confusion.
So, please clarify this doubt.
Thanks in advance

Smitha

Yes, I have developer edition on my Work PC which is XP. This should also be posted in the Administration forum rather than the T-SQL Forum. ;-)
