Jun 17, 2007 2 Replies

Curruntly I own one station(rms2.0) window xp and SQL 2000 special addition because my data already cross 4gb. Now I am planing to ad second station in my store. Can I run one station xp and new one Vista or I have to have both window xp. Do I need to upgrade sql server. I need more help before I buy second station.


Harjit,

I got for a test an XP (virtual) and a Vista system with R.M.S. SO. With a database on a SQL2000 instance on the XP system.

The Vista and XP system worked both fine and fast, so that is no problem.

The only thing that could be a problem is drivers for your hardware, because some drivers still are not available for Vista.

Hope that I helped you any further.
