  • Hi,

    this is possible. You just install SQL 2005 and set it up as a seperate instance. That's all there is to it.

  • Thank

  • Can both instances be running at the same time?  I'm considering migrating a handful of small databases from the instance of 2000 to the instance of 2005.  All databases need to be available all the time...If only one instance can run at a time, the databases on the instance not running will be unavailable.

  • Yes,

    Both instances can be running at the same time.
