Cannot install SEC 5.2

RJB

I am trying to install SEC 5.2 on our server. The server crashed last week and after a rebuild I can't get Sophos installed. It gets as far as trying to install the databases and fails "A custom action failed"...not very helpful! SQL server express 2008 installs but the failure appears to be when it tries to create the actual SOPHOS databases. We are running Windows 2003 SP2. Can anyone give me any ideas where to look?

    Think I've sorted it (a moment of inspiration!), there were still references to older version of MSSQL in the PATH variable (mssql\80\binn and MSSql\90\binn), I took these out and was able to create the databases manually. Going to re-run the installer this evening and see if I make any more progress!
