Problem installing SQL2K on WinXP Home

Hello there!

I am trying to install MS SQL 2000 Server on Windows XP Home edition.
I found in Microsoft that the above installation is possible.
But when i run the installation, i am getting a black screen that is
closes after a second. Nothing else happens.
Any ideas how to troubleshoot this?

Thank youLook for a log file named sqlstp.log. This is the log file created during the installation process. There should be some information in that log which might help you.|||Originally posted by rnealejr

I searched for the file you are referring but with no success. I cannot find such a file anywhere on my disk.

Any other ideas?!

Thanks for the reply.
