Hi Group,

I've installed msde already about 20times and they all went ok, except one
but that had to do with file and printer sharing. Now I'm trying to install
it on win 2000 sp4 like all the others, but I can't get it to install, the
pc has got file and printer sharing enabled, it has got internet explorer 6
sp1, I checked HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL
Server\Component Set
Value name: InstanceComponentSet.x Value and it's emtpy, there's no value
name: InstanceComponentSet.x
I already searched on google and something that seems to be returning is
that I should post the lines from the log file where I find return value 3
so here they are with some lines that are in front and some lines that are
behind it, (btw you won't find return value 3 but you have to search for
retourwaarde 3, it logs some words in dutch)

Any help would be very welcome

thanks in advance Peter

Peter,

I have exactly the same problem. I cannot install MSDE 2000 on a Windows XP
Pro SP2 machine. The install rolls back every time at exactly the same point
as yours. I posted here but did not get the answer. It may have something to
do with with manually deleting registry keys and Windows Installer parameters
to enable a "clean" install. I thought I did all the necessary steps but have
never been able to make it work. I will be watching your replies with
interest to see if you are able to get it installed.

Good luck!
