Correct it only loads on Windows 200x but I have not done a 2008 install yet. I am waiting for the replacement to do a 2008 install. It also needs either SQL Express or SQL 200x. It was designed for 2000 but works on 2005 if done correctly. I don't have any idea on a SQL 2008(?) install. I know you have to watch the install and there are a few gotcha's for a SQL 2005 install. Most of the gotcha's are mute if you have SQL up and running PRIOR to putting in SharePoint 3 SP 1. If you try doing them both at the same time you can get burned.
