  This is the last hope and try. Appreciate any help. 

  I am trying to install Reporting Services Evaluation Edition on a Windows XP Pro w/SP2, IIS 5.1, .NET Framework 1.1, VS.NET 2003.

  The SQL Server 2000 w/SP3a is on a different machine (Windows 2000 Server w/SP4)

  Tried installing it locally on the SQL Server machine also which has IIS, .NET etc.

   I get the following error during the installation process:"SQL Setup failed to execute a command for server configuration.  The error was: Database 'ReportServer' does not exist.  Check sysdatabases.Refer to the Server error logs and setup logs for detailed error information.On clicking "OK", I get a general error message: "Error Code: 1603"

  I am logged in with a domain account having administrative rights. The database server is also accessible with this account and has administrative privileges. 

  PLEEEEASE HELP!!!  Thanks in advance.
