Installing from disc and get error 'MS SQL Server 2012 Setup' w/says The OS does not meet min requirements ... for Windows 7 ... SP 1 + is required. For more information, see hardware and software requirements for installing SQL Server 2012 at: ' and gives link w/goes to http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/ms143506%28SQL.110%29.aspx
All hardware meets requirements, min .NET is 3.5 and I have 4.0. Just did SP 1 update. Can't find anything in MS Community, on blogs or online at other sites w/explains where to look.
Additionally, I'd rather install SQL 2012 developer vs. Visual Studio Express (my first objective) because the SQL disc may not install some 3rd party appls with typical auto updates. Can anyone tell me if SQL Server 2012 Developer asks for re-registering the program periodically?
Thanks,
