running SQL Server 2008 and 2005 side by side

  • Hello!

    I was wondering if I can install/run SQL 2008 and 2005 side by side with SQL 2005 being default instance. Any issues with that?

    Thanks,

    Igor

  • You can do this, but 2008 is not even feature complete and there will be changes coming in CTP6. I'd highly recommend you not do this. Instead get Virtual Server/PC and install 2008 in a VM.

  • Thank you Steve! That makes perfect sense to me.
