Hi,

I'm not aware of any restrictions, and it works well on my test box, so you may give it a try :-)

Thank you, I will give it a try.

The readme instructions say the following:

2.2 Obtaining SQL Server "Katmai"

"Katmai" runs on the following operating systems:

Windows Server 2003 Enterprise edition with SP1 installed for 32-bit x86 and 64-bit x64 editions

Windows XP Professional edition with SP2 installed for 32-bit x86 and 64-bit x64 editions"

Krzysztof, I am assuming your box is Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition? Thank you so much for your help and feedback.

Hi,

You have probably tried it by now. I have tested katmai June07 CTP installation (only) yet on Win 2003 std edn + SP1 and it worked fine.

I've got the same problem on the Windows 2003 Enterprise Edition X86.

There's no unblock button in the general tab.

I downloaded the CTP July Edition yesterday .

Any other suggestion?

Thanks in advance.
