[acole83]

hi
i just reinstalled windows xp on my comp and got it all setup and updated but when i instlled SQL 2000 it said it couldnt install it as there was also a copy installed.
so i was wondering if any one knows of a way to get this working with out restarting the comp all over again?

You Must have Some of the SQL Still hangin about, such as the Client tool...

Add/remove bascially..

XD Sound like XP SP2 with dot.Net ^^ in this is the new SQL-Express...
Search your C:\Programme for this.
