I would like to install second instance on the same computer for SQL
Express version.
I just wanted to know that can I install second instance from SQL
Server installation center or I have to re download install program
from MicroSoft web site

Your information and help is great appreciated,

You can install all day long with the media you have! (Well, you should
stop after 50 instances, because I think that is the officially limit
for what is supported.)
