I have SQL Server 2000 and I recently installed SQL Server 2005 Beta 2 as side-by-side installation. Now nothing seems to work.
In SQL Server 2000,
- Service Manager can't find the file specified. When I click on refresh services, I get "The system cannot find the specified file"
- Enterprise Manager: When I start it, I get "Snap-in failed to initialize"
In SQL Server 2005 Beta 2,
- I just don't see a program group for that. When I do Add, Remove program from my Control Panel, I do see that it is installed. Shouldn't there be a program group with XM, etc. ?

SQL Server 2000 and 2005 does not play very well together yet. Since 2005 is in beta you should install it in a separate testing environment, for instance a virtual pc image.

Even though I dont deny Chris comments on the Beta product's stability. I've been having SQL Server 2000 and the 2005 instances on the same machine without any problems till date. The latest install of Feb CTP works for me ...
