'Local database without sql server

I am creating a C# application that I will install on some low end pcs. All I can install on low end machines is .NET framework. I want to use some sort of database so that I can store information that application will be scraping from internet. Can anyone suggest me how to proceed about that ? I cant install any version of sql server.

Thanks.

SQLite seems to be the answer. http://www.sqlite.org/

Solution 2:[2]

I recommend SqlServerCe 3.5, it's compatible with EF 4.0 and it's so easy to deploy, just 2 .dll files.

Solution 3:[3]

VistaDB, SQLite, Compact Edition of SQL Server, MS Access, Firebird... the options are many and a list of them can be found here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embedded_database

You can try SQLite.
