| hi... i need help.i tried to install sql server 2000 on my laptop (WinXP os) and when i reach the form where im supposed to click "Install Database Server", the next form after clicking "Install Database Server" wont show, and there are no error messages. I tried everything i could but it didnt work. My last choice is to format my computer - but i dont want to do that.there are two processes running on the background that has SQL in its name - SETUPSQL.EXE and SQLSTP.EXE. I think this shows that the setup is still running.i need help asap please, and i dont want to format my computer...thanks in advance! |
