PC Hardware requirements for SQL 2005 Standard Edition

Hello,

I'm wondering if it is possible to install SQL2005 standard edition on a standard dual core pc with Win XP Pro SP2 OS.

Kindly advice.

Regards

Andy

That should be fine.

As a first part of the install process, a program will execute that will verify that the hardware and software environment will support SQL Server 2005.

To check the requirements, see this resource:
