  Hi,

  I am trying to install SQL Server 2005 Express on WIN XP Home Edition.

  During the SQL Server System Configuration Checking phase the following error is displayed:

  TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Setup

  ------------------------------

  The SQL Server System Configuration Checker cannot be executed due to WMI configuration on the machine XP-YAPF8UFMLH2L Error:2147942405 (0x80070005).

  For help, click: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?LinkID=20476&ProdName=Microsoft+SQL+Server&ProdVer=9.00.1399.06&EvtSrc=setup.rll&EvtID=70342

  EventID 70342 did not reveal much.

  Any help will be much appreciated.

  Regards,
