    <p>Your first step should be to download the latest TFS Installation Guide (TFSInstall.chm) from here: <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=FF12844F-398C-4FE9-8B0D-9E84181D9923&amp;displaylang=en" rel="noreferrer">http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=FF12844F-398C-4FE9-8B0D-9E84181D9923&amp;displaylang=en</a></p> <p>You should use TFS 2008 SP1, since it is the latest release and includes many new features and performance improvements.</p> <p>If you are planning on installing with Windows 2008 &amp; SQL 2008, you will need to "integrate" the TFS 2008 SP1 into the installation disc. Instructions are included in the TFSInstall.chm, but Martin Woodward also has a walkthrough on his blog: <a href="http://www.woodwardweb.com/vsts/creating_a_tfs.html" rel="noreferrer">http://www.woodwardweb.com/vsts/creating_a_tfs.html</a> (This isn't required for SQL 2005 SP2 + Windows 2003)</p> <p>The install guide also has hardware recommendations.</p> <p>For a team of your size, you should also consider running your TFS instance as a Virtual Machine. This will allow you to up-size and move your installation around more easily at a later date. TFS is supported on the Hyper-V virtualization platform: <a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/granth/archive/2008/06/27/team-foundation-server-and-hyper-v-virtualization.aspx" rel="noreferrer">http://blogs.msdn.com/granth/archive/2008/06/27/team-foundation-server-and-hyper-v-virtualization.aspx</a></p> <p>And if you need help along the way, you have three options:</p> <ol> <li><p>Call up MS product support ($$, but you will get an answer)</p></li> <li><p>Post on the official Team Foundation Server - Setup forums: <a href="http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowForum.aspx?ForumID=68&amp;SiteID=1" rel="noreferrer">http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowForum.aspx?ForumID=68&amp;SiteID=1</a></p></li> <li><p>Sign up to the <a href="http://OzTFS.com/" rel="noreferrer">http://OzTFS.com/</a> mailing list. The people on this list are pretty good at responding to questions almost instantaneously. It's also a great list to join if you just want to "watch" what's happening.</p></li> </ol>
