How to recognize the MS Cloud platform in Windows 7?

The 2005 version of the Microsoft database server does not seem to be recognizing the Microsoft cloud platform that I obtained and integrated to my Windows 7 system. When I uninstalled the database server, there was still no recognition. Are there ideal combinations for these programs for all of them to sync and work or are there just steps that I missed that need to take so that my cloud platform tools may be functional?
