I am trying to install SQL Server 2008 RC0 but the installation is failing giving error message as "Access is denied".
The installation was performed on a new system having no previous SQL database installed.All the other components of SQL server 2008 were installed except the Database Engine Services.
System Configuration:
OS: Windows XP
Hardware : AMD x64
Log file error:

Any solution?

It looks like you don't have access to DCOM. Did you install this as an administrator? When you run the install, right-click on it and run as adminsitrator.

Yah I ran it as an administrator.

Are you able to manually modify dcom settings or registry entries?
July 9, 2008 at 7:00 am
Yes, I have not modified the DCOM settings but had modified the registry.
After the unsuccesful attempt to install sql server , I had deleted registry entries from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->SOFTWARE->MICROSOFT->MICROSOFT SQL SERVER.
I have not done any changes to DCOM settings.

I have not tried to install SQL 2008 RC0 on an XP machine. There may be an actual issue. You should check the MSDN forums and report your installation problem.
July 9, 2008 at 7:10 am
Sure will do so.
Can you tell me on which operating system you have installed SQL Server 2008?
