  • AFAIK SQL 2K Enterprise Edition must be installed on NT Server Enterprise Edition, the same as all the rest of the enterprise server apps. Since XP is a desktop platform you will only be able to install SQL Server Personal Edition on it. See : http://www.microsoft.com/sql/techinfo/planning/ChoosEd.doc

  • Or Windows 2000/2003 Advanced Server. As Tim has said, you may install Personal Edition. Also, if you have an MSDN subscription of the appropriate level and you aren't going to be using the SQL Server in production, you may install Developer Edition. This is Enterprise Edition but with a special license that allows it to run on Pro or Server.
