| I am trying to install sql 2000 evaluation version from the microsoft website and am having a "fun" time! I cant seem to get the exe to extract...when it nears finishing it prompts me that I need to clear 478 MBs on C: but there is AMPLE room on the drive. Am I missing something, or has anyone ran into something similar before. Thanks for any help! Adam |

| So I thought too! Downloaded the second time and still the same result, very odd. Think Ill email Microsoft and see if they have any ideas. |

| Im sure I meet the installation requirments. Im lost! May try and find a copy of 2000 from another source other than Microsoft to see if it was just the file. Anyone know of another source, might as well ask while Im here! :) |
