To tell you the truth, the installation process really went through about one months, and has been procrastinating until last night before the official installation is complete. It was supposed to be April when the plan to install SQL Server 2008, but due to some reasons for the system has not been installed successfully, but also from the Internet to find a breach and ask my brother, together on the Internet chat about the installation environment of SQL Server 2008, said a lot, also found a lot of information on the Internet, Still did not find a solution to the installation on hold, and later in the WinForm learning process and some contact with SQL Server 200, and then began to install, is still the same as usual, there is no way to find a solution. Talking about the reinstall system I have some hesitation, March, just re-installed a system, and now re-installed, some reluctant to download a new installation package from the Internet (together with the installation environment and the necessary components are downloaded), just want to say and failed, then no longer think about this thing. To yesterday, just finished C # class, in the computer room slowly familiar with SQL Server 2008, and because the latter need to use this software, so back to the dorm after all do not want to choose the reload system, took a long time to find a relatively perfect system for reloading, after several times the process of reloading the system, This time the reload was very fast, about one hours to complete the reload, no hurry to install SQL Server 2008, first to install vs 2012, before installing SQL Server 2008. The installation process was completed correctly with the help of my brother.
