problems Installing Adventure Works....WOW Error

  • Hi,

    I have windows 7 OS running in my Laptop (64 Bit)...SqlServer installed in my system is 2008R2 (32 Bit). I have downloaded AdventureWorks 2008 from codeplex and tried to install. It shows an error that filestrem is not enabled...

    when i try to enable the filestrem it is not happening and the message it gives is WOW (Windows over Windows)

    and there is no compatibility between OS and SqlServer and hence Adventure works is not installed.

    Can any one please suggest me a way?

    1) Do i need to install SqlServer 64 bit version 🙁 (If yes please suggest me whether i can get this somewhere over the net)

    2) Or is there anyother Adventure works version that i can use with the current combination. :-)(64bit OS and 32bit SqlServer) ?

  • Try the AdventureWorks database without filestream.
