Private Server for Dummies

Well, not total idiots, but obviously not knowledgeable enough.

I really won't learn what I'm doing unless I can play/tinker with something...

I have:
A C# source
MySql & Visual C# installed
A basic understanding of how to use MySql and read/code in C#

What am I missing? What do I do next?

If the source is using MySql you need appserv wicth can be found at

You only need Microsoft SQL server Iff you are using it for as a database.
You don't have to download Apache Server for MYSQL, you can simply download MYSQL Community Server individually.

Microsoft SQL Server also doesnt support unsigned intergers without creating a custom SQL Server (not just your own database) so everything would need to be stored as signed intergers. So MYSQL would probably be better for most people if you choose to use SQL as your database.
