I am following the 2005 BOL article "How to: Remove a SQL Server 2005 Failover Clustered Instance (Setup)". The process is very simple, but perhaps the documentation is missing some steps. I am receiving the following errors during the uninstall.
The setup has encountered an unexpected error while Completing Commit. The error is: The cluster resource cannot be moved to another group because other resources are dependent on it.
If I click OK I receive the error below.
Failed to set registry settings for server network libraries. The action is SetShilohRoot. The error is 2 (The system cannot find the file specified.)
Am I supposed to do something to the cluster prior to performing the uninstall?
Thanks, Dave

The BOL instruction do not appear to be correct. I needed to follow "How to: Manually Uninstall a SQL Server 2005 Failover Cluster" and even that did not work 100%. Various services must be manually uninstalled as well as some cluster resources that were created during the SQL Server installation.
Does anyone know if setting the registry key SqlCluster=0 is the same as evicting the node?
Thanks, Dave

It was all because of the dependency which was causing this issue in cluster Services. If you made any dependency of SQL Services on to other service like in my case it was Redgate Service.
I just removed the dependency & managed to unistall succcessfully.
