1. I wrote a blog entry a while ago outlining the basics of getting started with AdventureWorks broken out by SQL Server version. My suggestion would be to grab the 'basic' version based on your version of SQL Server (2008, 2008 R2, 2012, etc.).
2. If you aren't using the SQL Server 2012 Developer Training Kit, please download the AdventureWorks sample databases from SQL Server Database Product.
