In the latest revisions and visual Studio 20,081, downloading the 180-day trial version of SQL Server 2008 from the official website is essentially the same as the official version, except that the key contained in the installation configuration file is the only difference. The various versions of SQL Server are exactly the same before this step:
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.
Developer:pttfm-x467g-p7rh2-3q6cg-4dmyb
Enterprise:jd8y6-hqg69-p9h84-xdtpg-34mbb
Note: The first method is to fill out the key to install it
Now introduce the second way, the difference between the official version and the use version
In the installer DVD, the serial number provided by default is determined by the contents of the Defaultsetup.ini :
The trial version is not this file, the official version of this file is located in the./x86, if your machine is 64-bit, it is located under./x64
Reference to its contents as follows: Reference:
; SQLSERVER2008 Configuration File
[SQLSERVER2008]
Pid= "***xx-***xx-***xx-***xx-***xx"
Pid= "***xx-***xx-***xx-***xx-***xx" as long as we replace the serial number we own pid=, then in the installation process, to the previous mentioned input key step, will automatically fill in the serial number for you here. Microsoft's official evaluate version does not have this file, so it defaults to the beta version. That is, all SQL Server 2008 installation media, the difference between the official version and the trial version, is just this defaultsetup.ini pid. If your installation media does not have this file, you can follow the above content to create your own.
Set up a Defaultsetup.ini file, you can copy the contents of the above reference, the PID corresponding modification can be, unknown message
So we also need not bother to find to wait 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 test version download application address:

PS1: Microsoft offers two versions in fact the same content, but the subsequent send to your mail is not the same, so no matter download which version is the same
PS2: In the letter: \x64\setup There is a config.xml there is a sentence <!--<pidkey value= "bcdfghjkmpqrtvwxy2346789b"/>, the string can be replaced
If it is a 32-bit machine, then in the X86\setup under the Config.xml file, please do not replace the wrong
