Hi Guys,

I was installed express edition, then i bought developer edition. I managed to uninstall express edition then install developer edition.
However when i want to restore database more than 4Gb, there is error
"CREATE DATABASE or ALTER DATABASE failed because the resulting cumulative datbase size would exceed your licensed limit of 4096Mb per database"
it looks like still looking to express edition registry. When i check my sql version using "SELECT @@Version"
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.3068.00 (Intel X86) Feb 26 2008 18:15:01 Copyright (c) 1988-2005 Microsoft Corporation Express Edition on Windows NT 6.0 (Build 6001: Service Pack 1)

that is what return on my version, i try to install SP3 for SQL 9 but,installed was succesfully however it still showing service pack 1 when i did re-check
does anyone have any suggestion?should i just re-install everything?but how to remove the express registry from my PC?
