I had the problem installing it as well, but even though it hang at the end, my SQL still worked. Then my computer crashed, had to reinstall XP, so started from scratch, and had no problems with the SQL install. Odd, huh? Do you have admin rights on that machine?

At the very end of the SQL Server 2000 install (Personal Edition) a permissions error is encountered and the install fails. I've tried the install at home with the same result (licensed XP and SQL Server). Any ideas on how to get SQL Server 2000 installed under XP Pro? This is straight off the CD-ROM so I cannot even apply the SP2 as yet. Grateful for any help - even though MySQL is good - very good - our production environment is SQL. Thanks!
