MySQL. However, I have MS SQL Server 2005, also, no problem installing it on my XP.

What message is it giving you, because it should install on your machine fine. Also what version of MS SQL?

Yes, to the second part, unless the installation automatically does it for you. Don't know what might be wrong with your installation procedure, mine worked right off the CD, no problemo.
