Installation problem.

When installing Windows 2000 Server tools I am getting a message that states that I need to reboot the PC before trying to install again.

Now usually it help’s by rebooting but in this case I am getting the same message all over again. How can I bypass this problem?

how about try to uninstall sql 2000. After uninstall, make sure go to c:\program files\microsoft\sql server and delete everthing in SQL Server folder so that there is no leftover stuff in there.
After this process, reboot the server one more time before you try to install SQL Server 2000.
