Hello Everyone,

I'm having issues installing the VS Beta2 professional version onto my
machine. Any ideas what is causing it?

Conf: WinXP, SP2

I've tried the VS cleaner tool kit to remove previous installation of VS
Beta if any, I don't have sql 2005 betas or ctp installed. I do have sql2000.

Here is the installation log...
