Win7 64 installs Visual Studio 2010 and SQL Server R2

1. On MSDN, I tell you to download the installation files, VS 2010 Whether 32-bit or 64-bit are the same file,Cn_visual_studio_2010_ultimate_x86_dvd_532347.iso. SQL download Cn_sql_server_2008_r2_enterprise_x86_x64_ia64_dvd_522233.iso for Enterprise Edition . The reason for using VS 2010 with SQL 2008 is that I found some configuration management tools with SQL 2008 installed when I finished vs 2010. (and the school room is loaded with the VS + + SQL 2005, so the apparent vs and SQL naming is really poor for a few years). The reason to install SQL R2 is that it is said to be an improved version, which is better than 2008.

2. Install Visual Studio 2010. This is relatively simple, I also forgot. When you are finished, you will see the Microsoft SQL Server 2008-> Configuration Tool->sql Server Installation Center (64-bit) in the Start menu. Such as:

3. Run the SQL Server Installation center and use this to install SQL Server. Previously downloaded SQL Server2008 R2 is an ISO file, I use a virtual CD-ROM mount, run Setup.exe, will pop up an error, you can choose to ignore, continue to install. But worry about the problem, so use the SQL Server Installation Center method to install. For example, select Install-New SQL Server standalone installation or add features to an existing installation, and then browse to select the SQL Server ISO mounted virtual CD drive letter.

4. The next step is straight on, not much to say.

5. Installation is complete. The strange thing is that the Start menu has more items:

Explain that Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 was first installed, and Microsoft SQL Server 2008 was generated when you installed VS 2010. Just installed in Microsoft SQL Server R2, you can find that there is one more Microsoft Visual Studio 2008, this is loaded with SQL R2 generated. Open vs 2008, send this vs can only build the project shown below, so this is not a complete visual Studio.

6. Integrated, installed on the machine, the complete flagship version of Visual Studio is 2010, the full SQL is R2.
