Does Windows 7 Ultimate support SQL server 2000 Express?

 

To Bonnie.

Microsoft SqlServer 2000 Express   actually has known compatibility issues  with windows 7 ultimate. May be you try to fix with the 32 bit version of windows 7 ultimate as SQL Server 2000 is a 32 bit software. But with windows 07 64 bit version, that can not be done.

Have a look at the link below and go to the system requirements section.

windows 7 ultimate is not in the list.
