Hi, Currently VISTA does not support MS SQL Server 2000 because of some technology enhancements.

thanks man...atleast now i know for sure that no matter what i do, i wont be able to install SQL SErver 2000 atleast on Windows Vista. well, i do have another query, if u could help me with this, Is there any problem if i go to format the hard disk and install Windows XP instead of Windows Vista on my laptop? actually my laptop came with Windows Vista Home Premium pre-installed, but due to some application compatibility issues i want to remove that and install XP. Can i go ahead with the regular process of installing an OS or is there any special care I need to take? Plz help
