It seems to me I cannot install SQL Server 2000 in my win 7 pro:

I try to google it and follow some guides, but it seems can not work for me.

Then I want to use VM, at least I need one Windows licence, it’s not easy for me to get this….

Ohhhhh, that’s a feature called ‘Windows XP mode’ in Windows7!

After run the ‘Win XP mode’, actually, it’s a XP VM, install SQL SERVER 2000 in the XP, and then I can run the SQL SERVER 2000 from Win7!

简单来说，就是使用Win7自带的XP模式（XP虚拟机）安装SQL Server 2000。
