I have had unbeatable problems in installing SQL Server 2005 in my computer having Visual Studio 2005, so I wonder if there is any problem in reinstalling SQL Server 2000 and making Visual Studio 2005 to attack that database (just data, no stored procedures, nothing, just data in tables....)
thanks

You can install with less than 512 MB of RAM. I have it installed on a Windows 2000 Pro machine with only 256 MB.
What issues were you having with the install? Were you trying to install the RTM version of SQL Server 2005 and had a version of Visual Studio 2005 beta on there? Or are both RTM?

Finally I gave up and installed SQL SErver 2000, well enough to just hold tables.
Problems I encountered were related to the sequence of install/deinstall of the Beta version I think. But I am not going to check any more, for me is enough. As soon as I have a "fresh" operating system, I will try again to install VB 2005 .NET Express and then SQL SERVER 2005,
thanks for your answers

Well, I'm not too sure what problems you were experiencing but I can say that my most success with SQL Server 2005 (all beta versions) working with Visual Studio 2005 (beta included) was when EVERYTHING (including .NET framework) was completely uninstalled. I used the Build Uninstall Wizard (sqlbuw.exe) on the SQL Server 2005 CD. This process had to be done every time.
All the best,

Yup. My rule was to uninstall all versions of the beta, then install the latest releases whenever one updated. Since RTM, I've made sure to uninstall beta completely, then install the RTMs. Only safe way I've found.
