Hi,

I am trying to download SQL Server 2008 Management studio in windows xp (32 bit). I downloaded the file "SQLManagementStudio_x86_ENU.exe" but i got the below error.

"SQL Server Setup cannot continue until the following programs are installed. After installing the programs, restart the computer if required, and then restart SQL Server Setup.

Microsoft Windows Installer 4.5 is available at : http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=159623"

and I see an "OK" butter below it.

The answer here might be to download the program and install.
