It might be failing if a SQL 2005 express instance already exists. If you install it normally, are you uninstalling it before trying the unattended install?
I'm assuming .net 2 is already installed?

Did you check the logs in
c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Setup Bootstrap\Log\date_time\Summary <server name>_date_time.txt
where you replace <server name> with the name of your server? You will find extensive diagnostic information available there which may indicate problem or at least give some hints on how to proceed to resolve?

If you want to do a number of unattended installs of SQL 2005 Express, it may be worth looking at FineBuild. Version 2.1.0 supports SQL 2005 Express installs on everything from XP to W2008 R2, and will also install all pre-requisite software for the OS you are installing on.
