If you do not have a serial number, then you can only select one of the three free edition (Enterprise evaluation, Express, Express and Advanced Service) above. If you fill in the serial number below, the SQL version corresponding to this serial number is installed, which is similar to Windows Server 2008.
Provided to you a few key, only for study, please do not use as his.

Enterprise:jd8y6-hqg69-p9h84-xdtpg-34mbb
In the installation program dvd, the serial number provided by default is determined by the contents of this file:
Its contents are as follows:
Reference:
; SQLSERVER2008 Configuration File
[SQLSERVER2008]
pid= "***xx-***xx-***xx-***xx-***xx"
As long as we replace the serial number we own with the pid=, then in the course of the installation, we will Microsoft
So you do not have to bother to look for the so-called "official version", in fact, the content of the trial version of the official website is the same, just click on the key I provide to select the corresponding version. Website Beta download Application address:
