I"m attempting to run the setup for the lab Hands On Lab: PowerPivot in SQL Server 2008 R2 (http://channel9.msdn.com/Learn/Courses/SQL2008R2TrainingKit/SQL10R2UPD00/SQL10R2UPD00_HOL_01/Overview)
and when I run setup.cmd it fails with the following message: Your current OS is not supported by the Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 Update for Developers Training Kit.
I have 2008 R2 running on Windows 7 Ultimate, Professional, etc. (tried on different machines). Setup contains a script that creates a special table in the AdventureWorks database, that's all I'm trying to get, but can't get beyond this error.
Any help greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Bruce

@bhendry:The SQL Server 2012 Developer Training Kit is not being maintained any more. Check out the jiggy new training kit content at http://bit.ly/sql2012cookbook.

Thanks for the reply, Roger! I searched all of the technet site and wasn't able to find the PowerPivot Lab mentioned above.
All I need is the schema for the single custom table created by the sql script found in the setup project. It seems a shame to not be able to use this still relevant PowerPivot lab because of something so minor; I'm sure somebody put a lot of work into it. And, I'd love to get my hands on it!
If I'm wrong and it does exist in the new location, let me know. Thanks!!
Bruce
