How to Reinstalling MSSQL Server 2008 with SP1? (Windows 7)
- by n10i
I am using Windows 7 Ultimate x64. I had earlier installed SQL server 2008 with SP1 with Visual Studio 2008 Team System with sp1. Now that VS2010 is out I wanted to install it so I uninstalled visual studio then MSSLQ Server 2008 SP1 and then SQL Server 2008 as suggested here: h**p://mark.michaelis.net/Blog/SQLServer2008InstallNightmare.aspx
But now when I try to reinstall it I am unable to get it right
I am getting the ERROR: “Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation.” (Following is part of the log file):

I have googled around for the error given error but all I could find is to regedit and reset permissions on certain reg keys but I don’t see any reg keys with access problem in the log file the log file can be download here: http://www.mediafire.com/?dznizytjznn. Please guys help me out here I am a developer and I cannot afford an OS reinstallation!
Thanks in advance…
