  • ehm ... none.

    Just be sure to only provide the parameters for the client tools and only install the client tools parts you need.

    Also double check to apply the sp/cu for the client tools.

    thanks for your reply... but i did not get this point "sp/cu for the client tools"

  • sp = service pack

    cu = cumulative update (intermediate hotfix bundles)

    meaning the software level of your sqlserver installation.

    I hope you did apply servicepacks to the installed sqlserver instance.

    For SSMS, be sure to at least install SP2 (because that one changes the GUI of your SSMS);

    The latest SP is SP3.
