|||I have tried every resolutions found on the website and it was still not
installing.
I've always set the lanaguage for non Unicode programs to chinese( Hong
Kong) to be able to display chinese character in the system natively. I have
specified the collation to Latin1_General in order for the setup to start but
the installation was never successful.
After switching the language back to English(United States), MSDE installed
fine.
Now my question is if I switch the language back to Chinese(Hong Kong),
would that mess up the MSDE install.
thanx
