Solved the problem. I initially installed off of 2 CDs and ran into the same problems this guy did (below). Then I uninstalled and ran off of DVD and it worked.******************************************************************"For those who encounters a similar problem: I guess my problem early on was due to my installing from CD #2. Although the client tools are mostly located at CD #2, you still have to install it from CD #1. If you have a DVD, you probably won't encounter my problem. Besides, it takes more than 30 min. to install the client, and I actually re-install twice to succeed, the first install stops and disappears misterously at about 10 min.. I mean, client install might spend more time than you think." (http://www.tech-archive.net/Archive/SQL-Server/microsoft.public.sqlserver.tools/2005-12/msg00074.html) |
