Is there a trick to getting this installed correctly? Everything works great until it gets up to starting the service. Here is the complete section of my setup log file.
SQL 2005 Standard.

Error : The SQL Server service failed to start. For more information, see the SQL Server Books Online topics, "How to: View SQL Server 2005 Setup Log Files" and "Starting SQL Server Manually."

I searched a previous thread dealing with this error, but seems like nobody has found a solution.
