What operating system did you install on? SQL 2005 Standard & Enterprise Database Engine will not install on Windows 7, Vista or XP, but some of the other components will. You need a server OS for the database engine (except for Express, Developer & Evaluation). If you're using Server 2003 or 2008, run the installer again. When you get to the Options Screen, is Database Engine checked?
