Actually not. It says:

Ms SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Ediditon server componenet is not supportet on
this operating system. Only client componentes will be avaible for
instalation.

I juts read that before SQL server 2000 could run i would need SP3. But I
get no chance of installing it. Is it because its enteprise edition?

my local computer! Thougt the popup window was on the server. (Using VNC)
