Just because I have had one or ten roadblocks every step of the way of rebuilding my server, I thought that this was very funny (thank goodness my sense of humor has returned after a good nights’ sleep!)

When trying to install SQL Server 2000 Ent from my 12/03 MSDN Universal CD on to a Windows 2003 server with all updates applied:

“SQL Server 2000 SP2 is not supported by this version of windows”

hahahahahahahaha

Of course I’m not the first person to see this, but it was a little suprising and the  solution is really just to ignore the message as I see in the many posts that google showed me.
