I'm attempting to install the BI Accelerator.

I have already installed:
* SQL Server 2000 Developer Edition (and SP3)
* SQL Server 2000 Analysis Services (and SP3)
* Office XP (and SP2)

The install fails with the message:
"Error while Checking if SQL Server is installed: ...
SQL Server does not exist or access denied. (-21467259)"

SQL 2000 is set up to run using a username/password that
has Administrator rights.
I can create databases and tables etc.

Any thoughts please anyone?

Thanks

Just so there´s a record here

Apparently the problem with the connection error message

"Error while checking if SQL Server is installed: [DNETLIB] [Connection
Open](Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or Access is denied
(-214767259)"

while installing BI Accelerator, is due to SQL Server being installed as
a "Named Instance" instead of a default instance. I confirmed this with
another guy that had this exact problem.

Correct. The development portion of the BI Accelerator can only connect to
the default instance.
However, once you have it generated, you can go back and reconfigure the
generated code to use a named instance at runtime.
Check the PAG documentation.
