RE: Installation problems



Hello Herb,

Based on my research, please follow these steps to install the Workstation
Component:

1. Use the Windows Installer Cleanup tool to check whether there is any
previous installation of SQL Server installed in the machine and remove it.

2. If you still could not install the component, please check the MSI
installer in the C:\Windows\System32 folder and then reinstalled it.

3. If you still get the error after reinstall the MSI Installer, please
collect the installation log file:

%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Setup Bootstrap\LOG\

and post it here.

Thank you!

Sincerely,
