| I found that SQL2K5 doesn't prompt for file locations while installing - for binaries and databases. Is this the default behavior?------------------------I think, therefore I am - Rene Descartes |

| At the time of installation of SQL 2k5 it will ask you for the binaries. Once you get the feature selection scrren at that time you could be able to select. I would recommed you to keep you Binaries in D:\ Drive C is for OS and E for DATA F LOG and G for Backup. If have one more drive then it would be for TEMP DB.ManojMCP, MCTS |

Mdubey, He is looking for file location while installing. Basically, you have to choose Advanced options and specify the location. |
