Do I have to get the developer license for develop a basic sample application on windows 8? I tired open a windows store project with visual studio 2012 and it says get a developer licence. I can not see the design mode. I can not see anything how my application looks like? I can not run it. How can I run with debug on visual studio without a developer licence? I just want to develop a basic application and run it on my windows 8 system? Is this possible?
For a developer license you only need a live ID, so it's basically a 30 seconds act to gain one. After that you freely build&run projects on your computer.

I am trying since 2 days. I was able to Install but I Cant see my all services in 'SQL Server Configuration Manager and I cannot access sql server management studio.
It works fine on my windows 7 laptop and it have all the services.
Xp have only 'SQL Server(SQLEXPRESS)' running and 'SQL SERVER AGENT(SQLEXPRESS)' and 'SQL SERVER Browser' stopped. I right clicked and tried to start but start is disabled. I am not sure whether this is installation issue or because of windows xp.
You can find a list of supported operating systems and requirments here.
I checked for you and XP Professional service pack 3 is in the list.
You can try if updating your service pack works?

I installed win 8 rtm on my laptop and today decided i wanted to RDP to it. I went to the remote table of the 'system properties' dialog and theres no option to enable it. There's a useless 'remote assistance' fieldgroup that microsoft apparently want to force me to use.
What I want is the magic checkbox that lets anyone RDP in. I've seen (http://blogs.technet.com/b/digital_musketeer/archive/2011/09/14/how-to-enable-remote-desktop-on-the-windows-8-ctp.aspx) other people have the option but I don't. Mine looks like the screenshot in the link except the remote access field group isn't there. I am an admin. Anyone know the reg key to turn this on?
According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_8_editions#Comparison_chart only the Pro and Enterprise versions of Windows 8 can host RDP. So if you don't have any of those versions you will not be able to connect to you laptop using RDP. Also confirmed on the offical Windows team blog at http://blogs.windows.com/windows/b/bloggingwindows/archive/2012/04/16/announcing-the-windows-8-editions.aspx.
I'm running the Windows 8 Enterprise RTM and I can get the same dialog as in your linked blog post. There are slightly different choices but the options are there, see http://www.guidingtech.com/13469/how-to-enable-remote-desktop-in-windows-8/ for screenshots of the dialog in Win8 RTM.

I have been trying to install the Windows Phone 8 SDK on a Windows 8 (x86) machine. But to no avail even though I read somewhere on the site that it will install but I will not be able to run the emulator.
Is Microsoft serious that Win Phone 8 apps can only be developed on 64-bit machines?
They make it quite clear the x64 is required on the download page:
Windows 8 64-bit (x64) client versions
I can't say with any authority, but I suspect it is because the emulator uses Hyper-V, which also requires x64:
Hyper-V requires a 64-bit system that has Second Level Address Translation (SLAT).

I have downloaded the sample database for SQL Server 2012 Express but I am having the following error message whenever I try to attach it:
The database 'AdventureWorks2012' cannot be opened because it is version 706. This server supports version 655 and earlier. A downgrade path is not supported.
Sounds like the server you are trying to attach the database to is not SQL Server 2012. This may be the version of Management Studio / Management Studio Express you're using, but I suspect SELECT ##VERSION; will tell you something different. It may just be a connection string mixup if you have multiple instances of SQL Server installed, otherwise you should download and install SQL Server 2012 Express from here.

I would need to create some webpages that are using jscript and different jscript libraries heavily and I will need to write a littlebit of code and debug it through to see if that works. I would like to know if there is an IDE exists on Windows jsut to do this or there is a combination of tools that can be used for this purpose?
I'd suggest Visual Studio Web Express, which you can easily configure to be a JScript debugger: http://www.berniecode.com/blog/2007/03/08/how-to-debug-javascript-with-visual-web-developer-express/
Visual Studio
Since JScript Microsoft dialect of ECMAScript.
In my opinion hands down the best JavaScript debugger available for windows is Visual Studio, unfortunately its far from free however the link that naivists posted allows you to use Visual Studio Express - Web Developer Edition (which is free) to do the same thing:
How to debug JavaScript with Visual Web Developer Express
You could also look into using tools like Firebug (Firefox only) - these sorts of tools are very good at inspecting and tweaking the layout of the page, however I've always found the JavaScript debugger to be a little lacking.
