I'm trying to load MSDE 2000 (SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine) on to Windows NT Workstation V4 (Service Pack 6a), but keep getting the same error when rebooting the machine after installation:

rundll32.exe - Application Error

The instruction at "0x100043c9" referenced memory at "0x015d0f20", The memory could not be "read".

This occurs only once (after installation reboot) but it seems as though the installation fails to complete since you cannot attach to the server via EM, (the sa password fails) and the menu setup is different to that of MSDE 1.0 (SQL Server 7).

I'm using the Setup method and specify a Datatarget and SA password in a settings file.

I've tried installing MSDE 2000 SP1 (SQL2KDeskSP1.exe) and the same problem occurs.

I obtained MSDE 2000 from the MSDE directory on SQL Server 2000 (Standard), an MSDN version from Jan' 2001 (CD 0121).

Does anyone have any ideas?

Ged"
