Quick queston. Running SQL 2K setup on server that already has SQL7. CD autoruns and I can select Install Components and then I can select Install Database, but then it just sits there. I have closed/stopped all SQL services to no avail. I'm at a loss. Any ideas?
 
I would recommened detaching your databases, then removing SQL 7 and installing a clean install of SQL 2000. Upgrading can cause issues. Be sure to have the passwords for any accounts that were created.
