| What is the edition of SQL 2012 that you are trying to install? And, also what is the Windows 7 edition? Take a look at this page to see if your edition can be installed: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143506(v=sql.110).aspxHome edition of Windows 7, for example, supports only Developer and Express editions. |

I have windows 7 ultimate 32-bit.I download sql server 2012 express from "www.filehorse.com/download-sql-server-express/" but when I run it, I received this error:"The operationg system on this computer does not meet the minimum requirement for SQL Server 2012. For windows Vista or Windows Server 2008 operating systems, Service Pack 2 or later is required.for windows 7 or Windows 2008 R2, Service Pack 1 or later is required. for more information, see Hardware and software Requirement for installing SQL Server 2012 at: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=195092" |

| Do you have SP1 on your windows? Click the Start button, right-click Computer, and then click Properties to see if you have it. Also, even though this may not be your issue, I wouldn't download sql server software from anywhere other than Microsoft's website. If you have the right service pack, and if you still have issues, go through each item in the link given and see if you meet the hardware and software requirements. |

| Which version of Sql Server Express is hosted on that site? 32-bit or 64-bit?Also, I'd download directly from Microsoft, not a 3rd party site. |
