  • Can you provide screenshot that includes entire message. It's cut off on the left side of the screen.

After pressing F8, select the Last Known Good configuration from the startup menu.

Start the computer using the last known good configuration

Maybe try going into safe mode and uninstall sql u just installed. The Installater service will not be running so you need to use the link below.

If that doesnt work then basically you are not in a good position. Boot from a 2003 CD and goto new installation and when it finds the existing installation, repair it rather than reinstallation. That is the only way i can think at this point to fix this.
