ASP.NET

The only way to Find out is to attach it on an SQL Instance,First try to attach it in an SQL 2005 instance, if its a SQL 2008 then it will give you an error that has something like 

"bla bla bla does not belong to ...Family ...."

and if you are able to attach it then it means its 2005 

The SQL Express is good for your requirement, i dont think you need to do some conversion, as long as you have SQL Express instance installed on your machine you can just attach your files

You dont need visual Studio , you need to Install the SQL instance. That will have SQL Management studio to attach your Files 

if you could do this then its not a 2008 mdf files, you can still confirm by "Right click on your Database and go to properties and select the "Options" and check the Version from there. 

How do you know that you cant connect , if you cant see the error ?
