  Greetings! I tried installing SQL Server 2005 Express on my VISTA Beta 2 Box but before doing so, I checked if IIS is already installed and running.

I will be continuing to do experiments with this one and hope there will be people who can share their experiences too. Thanks! I could not get SQL Express running yet, too. But it seems to be a known issues, because before installation I got an error that is a known compatibilty issue. ...Show All
