To fix SQLSLammer virus.
tried to install SP2.

error

"Setup was unable to verify the state of server for an
upgrade. Verify if server is able to start and that you
provided a valid sa password and restart setup'

I chose 'Windows Authentication' instead 'SQL Server
Authentication'.

My SQL is

Product Version 8.00.194
                Personal Edition.
                Service Pack 3. (even though I can't
remember that
I installed Service Pack 3).

I got this information by SQL.

SELECT @@VERSION
---------------
Microsoft SQL Server 2000 - 8.00.194 (Intel X86)
        Aug 6 2000 00:57:48
        Copyright (c) 1988-2000 Microsoft Corporation
        Personal Edition on Windows NT 5.0 (Build 2195:
Service Pack 3)

SELECT SERVERPROPERTY('ProductVersion')

8.00.194

SELECT SERVERPROPERTY('Edition')

Personal Edition

I used to login the computer using Novell.
Our office is using Novell(sorry!!).
When I login in Novell that looks like remember windows
login information, too.

but my company network
disabled my wallport because my PC was running a version
of Microsoft SQL server that is vulnerable to a remote
compromise.

so, I can login Novell as only workstation only.

Thanks for any help in advance.

Kim,
