sql server new users: I am trying to install SQL Server 2000 Desktop edition on my home computer. I
have XP home edition for an operating system. I keep getting the following
error:

"An error occurred while creating one or more registry entries. Please see
C:\WINDOWS\\\sqlstp.log for details. The problem could be caused by a low
registry quota condition."

Hi,

Hi,


You may try the following steps and see if it is helpful:
1. Open Control Panel->System.
2. On the advanced tab, click Performance options, and under virtual memory
click change.
3. Under registry size, type a new registry size.

If this does not help, it can be a permission issue. we may run the
particular utility "regedt32" manually to add the value:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\MSSQLS­erver\Client\ConnectTo

Since this utility requires permission to the registry, we can make sure
whether or not the logon account has the permission to create the value
entry. We may grant full control permission and then install SQL Server.


Thanks,
