Has anyone experienced an error saying there is not enough diskspace to extract the files in the SQL 2000 SP3a file provided by Microsoft? I have 120GB of free disk space and when trying to extract files to the drive I get the message telling me to free up 136.95 mb of space.

I used a workaround by copying the EXE file to another computer, running it so it would extract the contents of the self extract CAB. Copied the extracted folder to the Server and ran the install.

I believe the issue is related to memory vs paging file. I believe my paging file is maxed out. I have to get more RAM for the test server which only has 1 GB ram in it as we speak with a 1.42GB paging file.
