I have made all of the recommended changes, but still
cannot get past the validation portion of the SP3
installation.

 - I installed MDAC 2.7 SP1
 - Replaced the dbmslpcn.dll in my system32 dir with the
one in SP3
 - I added the value DSQUERY > DBNETLIB to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSSQLServer\Client\
ConnectTo\
 - I have tried to run it as the administrator account on
the local machine
- tried the sa password validation
- I ran Sqlredis.exe. (although it didnt appear to do
much, just unpack and quit)

But I think my problem is before the validation window,
in the Named Instance window. I cannot choose a named
instance. The check-box is greyed out, it will not allow
me to change it from the default instance.

Any idea why this is?

Thanks in advance.

Sqlredis.exe does this and is
