Problems installing SQLServer 2000 Developer Edition on Windows XP Pro

Hello!

When trying to install SqlServer 2000 Developer (as Administrator) on my
Windows XP Professional I get the following message at the point where
the system asks Local Account or Domain account:

The logon account cannot be validated for the SQL server service. Verify
that the user name and password entered are correct. The logon attempt
failed.

Anyone an idea what goes wrong here?

Thanks for your info.

service" rights to local machine. After you verified that you didn't
make a typo entering the login. :-)

Problems installing MSDE Desktop SP3a SQL server

Hi,
I'm trying to install MSDE Desktop SP3a SQL server on my Windows 2000 Professional Laptop.
Every time I try it nearly finishes the installation and then just rollsback.
Can anyone help? Is this a known issue?
Thanks in advance,
JockyHave you tried using the verbose logging switch when you install? You need to add something like this to the setup.exe you are running fromthe commandline:

/L*v c:\msde_install.log

|||The following article might help you setup MSDE from command line.

That Microsoft article did the trick. Thanks y'all!

Hello everybody

Ok the problem is that i have sql 2000 in a computer with windows 2000 professional sp4. i'm trying to install the sql server 2005 in other instance. When the installation begins i don't have any problem, but when it ends, y try to enter to the manage studio and is not in the start menu. Sql 2000 is ok but i can't work in 2005 i reinstall both versions but the problem persist. I delete all the files in the instalation but when i install it again the problem apperas again. how can i install both versions?

Did you install SQL Express? There is no Management Studio in the setup, download it separately from here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=C243A5AE-4BD1-4E3D-94B8-5A0F62BF7796&DisplayLang=en

|||Also the management tools in SQL Server 2005 require that IE 6 be installed, and this is not installed by default on Windows 2000 operating systems. If you could, would you mind posting the contents of the Summary.txt file located in %programfiles%\microsoft sql server\90\setup bootstrap\log?|||Well when i tried to install the sql server 2005 my windows 2000 have SP4 and all the prerequisites that are necessary to do it.
