    I'm unable to install SQL Server SSMS 2008 in the Windows Server 2003 server.

    Getting the below Error:

    Product: Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Management Studio -- Error 1807. A valid destination folder for the install could not be determined.

    Error Message received at the Event Viewer

    Event Type: Error

    Event Source: MsiInstaller

    Event Category: None

    Event ID: 11807

    Please suggest me if anything is misses out at my end.

    Regards ..

    Thanks.

    If you have room on the workstation, copy both CDs on to a common directory and title them CD1 and CD2 then run the setup. If this does not work, run SQLSupport.msi from CD1 first then install SQLRun_Tools.msi

    This wouldn't be a problem if Micorosoft hadn't discontinued the Windows Cleanup Utility.
