I am installing a fresh SQl server 2005 STD 64bit on Server 2003 SP 2 also freshly installed.
I am installing with default instance connect via network credentials and mixed mode. However
the install fails with the SQL server database services and the client components. The log for the database services is as follows:

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

"MainEngineThread is returning 1620" means the Windows installer couldn't open the MSI file.
This could just be a corruption of your original download or disc.

Thank you very much Mr Scarlett!
Tried with a new SQL 2005 install disk and it worked perfectly!
