Installation of MSDE 2000 sp failed

[Erik van Dongen]

When I tried to install CIM 4.1 at a customer site the installations of the MSDE 2000 sp3 failed with the following message "msde 2000 sp3 installation fialed with exit code 1603".
The installation is done remote with a NetOp connection to the console.
I've seen a message on a forum that CIM can not be installed using a RDP session, is this also the case with utils like NetOp, PcAnywhere etc.?

Make sure there are no SQL directories under C:\program files\..... or SQL is installed on the machine.
