I have downloaded the file SQL2000.MSDE-KB884525-SP4-x86-ENU.EXE from microsofts website. The page said that it would update the Desktop Engine. I ran the file and then ran the setup.exe that the file creates. I get the following error :

The instance name specified is invalid.

I have searched through MSDN, but found very, very little. Has anyone else ran into this problem?

read section 3.2.2 of the ReadmeSql2k32desksp4.htm file that is included in the folder where you ran the setup.
