Hi all, I am able to install every program within the studio download except for Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition x86. I am running windows XP Home edition on a 32-bit machine.
What happens when you try to install SQL Server Express?
It simply says failed to install that particular component.
I just realized you were running the Home Edition.
I can't test this as I don't have the Home Edition, but maybe it doesn't like that.
Upgrade your installer to 3.1 and that should fix it.Quote:
A user might get the message "A problem has been encountered while loading the setup components. Canceling setup," and then Setup is cancelled. This only occurs on systems that do not have Windows Installer 3.1 installed.
SQL Server Express will work on the Home edition?
Best way is (or was - there were rumors that those images will expire) to download and install virtual machine image where everything is already installed and configured.
A little more to download but installation procedure is much simpler.
Yes, XP Home or Pro.Quote:

hey guys where can i get the fill images? because the sql server express still won't install. i'm not going to install them on this machine but i can just store them until i install on my new laptop right?
VS08 downloads are avail from the VS website: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/vstudio/default.aspx
Took me all of two seconds looking at the MSDN site to find that.
A couple thigns to note:
1) VS will be released soon, in fact it's rumored to be any day now (Thurs)...
2) The VS2008 Betas expired Nov 1. EDIT - scratch that it's the VPCs of VS08Beta that I'm thinking of....

Can you find log files of expression installation and try to search for any suspiciou failure/error messages in them? You can find the log files under: %program files%\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Setup Bootstrap\LOG\
I have tears in my eyes I'm laughing so hard.
Oh Rob, guess what? Your PM box is full again. :lol:
This is what I was going to ask:
"Do you have a release copy of 2008 yet?
Either I missed it, or it hasn't been shipped to us yet."
I have the following possibles:

There are more logs but essentially they are identical since I attempted multiple times to install. I can't make heads or tails of it..Quote:

I don't think its necessary, this is my broken down old acer. i have my new toy so i'm going to be completely erasing everything from this laptop and installing a fresh version of XP Pro on it to be used as a test machine and nothing else.
What are the chances this will happen on a brand new computer with a freshly installed Vista Business?
I would say far less chance than with your old acer. :)Quote:
