| Hi,I am trying to do an unattended install of SQL Server 2000 Client Tools to a computer running Windows Standard Server 2003 + SP1. I have recorded the ISS file and call it just like in the bat files:start /wait x86\setup\setupsql.exe -s -m -SMS -f1 "setup.iss"The very first thing that happens is this pop up dialog appears:***********************************************SQL Server 2000SQL Server 2000 sp2 and below is not supported by this version of Windows. Please apply sp3 after installation of SQL Server 2000.[Checkbox] Don't display this message again[Buttons] Continue, Cancel, Details***********************************************I can't figure out a way to suppress that dialog and if I have to interact with it then it's not an unattended install!!How do I work around the dialog?Thanks,Ian |

| I don't think you can, it's hard-coded into Windows 2003. You'll have to do manual installs on those computers. |
