You need to either supply commandline arguments, or edit the empty
setup.ini file and supply them as options there. Go to
msdn.microsoft.com and search for articles like: installing MSDE.

Hi,
I've downloaded MSDE 2000 R1 from Internet. Tried to install on my PC with
running on Windows XP Pro with SP2.
When everytime i runned the Setup.exe, it will prompt for "A Strong SA
password is required for security reasons. Please use SAPWD switch to supply
the same. Refer to readme for more details. Setup will now exit".
Everyone know about this ? anyway to proceed the installation ?
