Hi Viv,

See if http://www.tkdinesh.com/faq/ans/servuni.html maybe of help.
BTW, did you check Sqlsp.log for error details?

After the main installation was complete I immediately attempted to instal SP3a and got an 'Error running script sp1_serv_uni.sql(1)' error. Only thing I can find on this is in MSDN which states this error is caused if the master database is moved from its original location (which was not the case) and that the solution is to install the latest service pack (which is what I was doing)...
