Change the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10_50.<instancename>\ClusterState\MPT_AGENT_CORE_CNI and set the value to 1. All keys there should have the value 1. also the one from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10_50.<instancename>\ConfigurationState.This will solve the problem 100%Sat, 19 May 2012 13:30:32 GMTovchttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1300148-1550-1.aspxI would recommand you to review the installation log on the failed instance to find out the error. There are just so many things can go wrong.Wed, 16 May 2012 11:35:42 GMTSunny1http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1300148-1550-1.aspxCleaning up a failed SQL installtion can be a real bear, but sometime you can't reinstall until all traces of a failed installations are removed.Here are some hints:1) First go to add/remove programs and remove any SQL components that are listed. 2) Open regedit and delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server3) Delete the Program Files and Program Files(x86) Microsoft SQL Server folders4) Go into local users & groups. There there may be custom users installed by SQL. Remove them.Reboot and look again for the above items to make sure they weren't added back.Good luck!Tue, 15 May 2012 15:37:57 GMTdan-572483http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1300148-1550-1.aspxHi for some reason my install of SP1 crashed and I cant re-run the installation again. it gives me error as A failure was detected for a previous installation, patch, or repair for instance 'INS2' during configuration for features [MPT_AGENT_CORE_CNI,].
