Can we install nwds 700 on windows server 2008 64bit

Firstly, installing a NWDS on a server is a wrong concept. The NWDS is a tool for LOCAL development. The development workspace(s) have to be located on the local storage device and not on a network device. (otherwise I do not see a reason to install NWDS on a server)

2258252 - Can not create a DC in NWDS - "Cannot synchronize local path"

Lastly, NWDS 7.0 might run only over Windows XP. Please have a look on this note:

1225606 - Platform Restrictions f. NetWeaver Developer Studio 2.x-7.0x

P.S.: Nothing will stop you to install the NWDS 7.00 on Windows 2008, though. Yet, don't be surprised when you do observe some strange events.
