Step 2: Install the SDK as prompted. Note that Windows Phone SDK 8.0 of each localized version is designed to work with the localized operating system and Visual Studio 2012 of the localized version.
Note:
1. When you install WPSDK 3.0 on a computer that uses a Gigabyte motherboard and enables a USB 8.0 host controller in the BIOS, the computer may stop responding during startup. To solve this problem, disable USB 3.0 in the computer BIOS.
2. When WPSDK 8.1 is installed on Windows 8.0, the Windows Phone 8 simulation program cannot work on Windows 8.1. To fix the simulation program, install Windows Phone SDK 8.0, and then install Visual Studio 2012 Update 3.
3. If Visual Studio professional, advanced professional, or Enterprise is installed on your computer, the Windows Phone SDK adds all the elements you need to the existing installation.
4. The Windows Phone SDK will install Visual Studio Express for Windows Phone and create a shortcut for it, you can click the application in the Application List to start it to create a Windows Phone 8.0 application.
5. If Hyper-V is not enabled when the Windows Phone simulation program runs a project, the system will prompt you to enable Hyper-V. Enabling Hyper-V requires you to restart your computer.
