A previous program installation created pending file operations on the installation machine.
Hi Guys,
I have a serious problem regarding my MSSQL2000 Server during the installation. I actually installed it before, but after removing it, when I tried to do the installation again a serious error message pop ups.
Installation Error Message:
"A previous program installation created pending file operations on the installation machine."
Note: When I check all the MSSQL file in the registray and win\system32 there's nothing left...
everything were already removed.
I hope you could help me with my problem
thanks

4. Identify the virtual memory settings on the computer. If the paging file is too small or if there is no paging file, this error message may occur at startup:
Limited Virtual Memory Your system has no paging file or the paging file is too small.
