Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Server 2005 (AFAIR only Standard and
Developer Edition) can be successfully installed on Windows XP Home
Edition with SP2. However, not all functionality is available in that
case. So you will have to forget about IIS, ASP.NET (and related) unless
you upgrade to Professional Edition.
