Okay, here's where I am at. Uninstalling the Logitech webcam allowed SQL Server Express to finally clear the error for 'restart computer'. Eventvwr shows a number of SQLSERVER events.
But, looking at the installation I don't see any of the types of interfaces I get when I work with SQLSERVER at work, so I don't think I have a clean installation.
How can I best tell if I have a complete installation or need to do an uninstall/reinstall?
Thanks,
Ed
