2005 Notification Services - problems...

Can somebody help? I'm simply trying to do the built in tutorials. I
have 2005 Dev. Edition installed on my PC, and I've reached this step
in the tutorial process...(Registering, Enabling, and Starting the
Instance)
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms170375.aspx
The service will not start, and when I check the event logs, I have
this error....
The Notification Services instance encountered an error in one of its
components and must stop.
EventParameters:
Instance Name: Tutorial
Problem Description: The database was created with or upgraded to a
different edition of Notification Services. Use the Notification
Services edition that the database expects.
Notification Services Edition: Developer Edition
Database Edition: Standard Edition
I'm not really comprehending why the database edition says Standard,
and why my NS edition is Developer, when I installed Dev. Edition on my
PC.My first suggestion is to make sure you provided the correct SQL Server
instance name when you created the new instance and when you registered the
instance. If those are correct, can you run the following query and let me
know what it reports back?
SELECT @.@.VERSION;
On my Dev Edition instance, here's what it returns:
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.1399.06 (Intel X86)

where they gave everyone a free Standard Edition copy, I had installed
the Standard Edition on my PC. Then, after we got the Developer
Edition at work, I either installed some stuff on top of Standard
Edition, or uninstalled and reinstalled Dev. Edition (can't remember
which I did). But clearly there were some components of each edition
lingering around. I uninstalled everything from my machine and
reinstalled on Dev. Edition, and now I'm up and running.
