I tried this, but was unable to see anything for SQL Server. I am "guessing" that the migration to this PC simply did not handle that correctly. I am thinking I will simply re-image the PC (ugh) as I have a couple other little nagging issues. Then, I shall retry the installation. Thanks to you both for all your very kind help!

Note: SQL Server 2000 Setup is really bad. If you lose the log file of the Setup then you are in the soup. I really dislike it... SQL Server 2005' s Setup is really good and it seems SQL Server 2008' s is much better. -- Ekrem Önsoy "PatK" <PatK (AT) discussions (DOT) microsoft.com> wrote in message news:B7978242-FF82-47BD-976B-1A7BEC72169C (AT) microsoft (DOT) com... I tried this but cannot really seem to get off the ground. As near as I can tell, my computer does not seem to "think' it has Enterprise manager installed. The KB article recommends deleting the install directory in the Program Files, but that directory does not even exist for me. So, I am guessing something is quite wrong, given that it shows in my Start->Programs-Menu, but is not actually installed. I am totally in trouble, as I have to get sql server reinstalled, but the install fails every time (it "acts" like it installs, and then simply "ends") with no notice, and no error.

I don't know any way to just uninstall Enterprise Manager without touching any other SQL2000 pieces (if that's what you wanted to do). But there should be a SQL Server 2000 entry in the Add/Remove Program list that you can select to uninstall SQL Server 2000. Is it not there? You can also take a look at this KB article on how to manually remove a SQL2000 instance.

I am attempting to remove it, so I can start over, but apparently, there is no UNINSTALL option, nor is it listed in Control Panel, Add Remove Programs (that I can see, anyway). Anyone have ANY idea how to uninstall an older version? Installing over the top does not seem to work, either. THanks for any pointers! Patk |
