Don't think you can run a server on w7 buddy unless you have a virtual machine with xp / vista installed on it that would be surgestion to yourself

Syntex.

Don't think you can use SQL 2000 but you can run all server files fine.

For future reference, there's a guide on SQL 2005 for windows 7, search is a wonderful feature :O

Yes but i was talking about using Server 2000 not server 2005 if you read correctly

Oh, well I may have read it wrong, but theres enough information on the forum using the search feature which would've allowed you to gather research and give you an answer of: it can't be done, basically.

I had already searched and thats why i posted a thread on here asking, if there is no point asking questions other than to get a flame from a user like you, then what would be the point in the server help section?
Either way its solved & you do not need to post.

 

[Anaconda]

Was not giving you a flame as such, was basically pointing out the obvious and using common sense, mate what is the point in asking if the answer is already stated, if you had done research like you claim to have done, you would not need to post, the answer is stated clear as day.

Also, you don't need to post either, kthxbi?

I'll let you have last say pal, knock one out
