Hi,
Thanks for your reply.

There is no SQLServerAgent or any similar service
running. I only installed client tools because other
options were grayed out and I got this error message:

'Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition server
component is not supported on this operating system. Only
client components will be available for installation.'

My operating system is windows 2000. I know that sql
server was runing on this system and I uninstalled it. It
seems that some Windows programs are deleted when I
uninstalled the SQL Server for the first time. Do you
know what should I check and what may be missing? I don't
want to reinstall my operating system.

Thank you,
Rosie
