Can I install sql server 2000 and sql server 2005 in the same pc? Both SQL
SERVER are running well? Are there any article or documents about it? Any
help, I do really appreciate it.

I don't know much about it but I know that if you run two different
version of SQL server, you will not get good performance, as SQL server
requires a lot of resources.

But if you have to run two in same machine, I will think about virtual
machine software. just thought.

good luck,

Yes, you can. I installed 2K as my default instance and a 2K5 as a named
instance to learn 2K5. So far so good.

Hi
Yes , I have both servers on my workstation running well. It will be
cretated an named instance of SQL Server 2005 as I assume you have already
installed SQL Server 2000.

Running SQL in a virtual machine will chew even more resources. So make sure
you got LOOOOOTS of memory and fast disks. Just a thought too.
