Re: Install SQLS2k after SQLS2k5?

Peter,

Thank you for your reply.

Since I wanted to install it for the purpose of connecting to another
instance through TCP/IP then I will want to uninstall SQL Server 2005 first
before installing SQLS2000

I have a few question, but first a couple of facts:
My OS is Windows XP Pro 32-bit (SP3)
SQL Server 2005 is (SP2)
This system is set up for development purposes only.

How to uninstall?
SQL Server 2005 installs a lot of stuff and I am not exactly sure what I
need to uninstall.

Do I have to tediously uninstall each component or is there a way to
uninstall everyting I need to thorugh the installation disk?

If not below is a list of related installed components on this machine. (you
will see I have Visual Studio 2005 also installed). What do you suggest I
need to uninstall? before installing SQL Server 2000.

[o] Indicates what I think can stay.
[x] Indicates what I think must be uninstalled.

[o] Microsoft NET Compact Framework 1.0 SP3 Developer Size 9.87MB
[o] Microsoft NET Compact Framework 2.0 Size 59.27MB
[o] Microsoft NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 1 Size 186.00MB

[x] MSXML 6.0 Parser (KB933579) Size 1.31MB
[x] SQLXML4 Size 2.60MB

(By the way this is a Virtual Machine and I can back it up before I
uninstall just for protection)

Thank you,
Douglas
