Hi

I am trying to install 64bit SQL Server 2005 on 64bit Windows 2008 R2 server.
I am getting the following error when trying to install SQL Server 2005.

Error 29528. The setup has encountered an unexpected error while Installing performance counters. The error is: Access is denied.

I have attempted to follow MS articles but havent been able to resolve the problem yet.
Also tried disabling UAC, run the setup.exe using domain admin account, and also did "lodctr /R:PerfStringBackup.INI" . Nothing has worked unfortunately.

Can someone please assist.

is this a named instance, where another instance already exists? did you make sure to change the default directories for the binaries and database files?
