downloaded and extracted the x86 install files for the Eval version of SQL 2008 (from here: http://www.microsoft.com/sqlserver/2008/en/us/trial-software.aspx)

When I trying to Install I am getting the following error.

==============================================================
SQL Server Setup has encountered the following error:

SQL Server 2008 setup100.exe and setuppatch.exe cannot be run in this mode. If you are running setup100.exe, start setup.exe instead.
If you are running setuppatch.exe, run it from the command prompt, as the user interface is not supported for this action. For more information about Setup, see SQL Server Books Online.

Error code 0x84B20001.

------------------------------
BUTTONS:

OK
------------------------------

Then I tried to install from CMD prompr also but still showing the same error.
Can anyone help me please.
Thank you

That link takes me to 2012 download. Are you running setup.exe like it tells you to?

This is of concern, there is no extraction of the x86 files. You run setup.exe and it determines which bitness to run.
