Not sure what you are trying to accomplish but I am running SQL Server 2005 Express SP2 on one and SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition on another... All the other version are Production Versions which would make no sense for you anyway as they are to expensive. Developer has all capabilities of Enterprise...

I wanted to ask what version of MS SQL server should I install on Vista Home Premium. Because when I install SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition, Vista start giving message of software incompatibility. So please tell me which enterprise version I should Install. thanks

Only the Express and Developer version will run on Vista the other versions require that you are running a full version of Windows Server 2000 or 2003.

Considering the Enterprise edition costs over $20,000, there is no way anyone buying a license for it at that price would run it on a home/workstation OS like Vista, you would be running using it on Windows 2003 Server Enterprise to take full advantage of all that money you spent.

I have downloaded MS SQL Server Express with Advance Services and it is running good on my Pc, also the new service pack 2 gives me more control for surface area configuration. Thank you for your help.
