    Which version?

    Do you have any particular error messages?

    Several people on the forum's here have installed it with little to no issue, so we know that it does install.

    I got SQL 2008 installed on a windows 2003 Server sp2 box, but having problems getting clustering working on 2008 server and 2008 sql 64bit.. still researching that.

    Depending on the version you are installing (RC versus CTP) there might be conflicts with previous versions of SQL. I had a problem with SQL 2005 files still being on the machine and once I removed those I was able to install it.

    However, the error message would be handy to have.
