TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Setup
------------------------------

The SQL Server service failed to start. For more information, see the SQL Server Books Online topics, "How to: View SQL Server 2005 Setup Log Files" and "Starting SQL Server Manually."

Check your installation log files . They'll be something like:
%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Setup Bootstrap\LOG\Summary.txt

At what point did it fail?
Are there any error messages?
