Team Foundation Server 2013 Install Guide
by
[May 28, 2014 Update: there’s a new version of this guide]
I’ve been spending a lot of time playing with Team Foundation Server 2013 lately and I’ve done a handful of installs. I created an installation guide with screenshots of each step to help make the process go more smoothly. At the moment, it only has Chapters for installing Windows Server 2012, SQL Server 2012, and Team Foundation Server 2013 but I’ll be adding chapters on installing TFS Build servers and test controllers/agents for both load testing and for automated QA testing.
Here’s the link to the PDF version. Here’s the link to the HTML version.

why should I install SQL server 2012 & 2014?
You should NOT install SQL Server 2012 AND 2014 – only one or the other. The reason to install SQL 2012 OR SQL 2014 is that TFS 2013 will not work without SQL Server 2012 or higher.
