If you have the MS-SQL 2K5 server disk, just install the client component. It will not create any folder or anything but install a dll file that the ARS installation will use to connect to SQL 2K5 servers on your network. So when you give the installation the necessary information to connect to the SQL server, it will be channeled through this client.

It looks like maybe you are missing the MS-SQL 25 client. The SQL client for 2K5 is just a dll file that gets installed and registered (I remember pulling some of my hair over this). You will not see anything in your Start Programs folder after the installation of the MS-SQL 2K5 client..

Install your system on 2000, upgrade that to 2005 after shutting down the Remedy services, and then change the compatibility level of the SQL database to 2000. That should work.

Ideally it should be connecting up to a SQL 2005 server. After reading through the archives, I've set the sp_dbcmptlevel for SQL 2000 (as per our 5.1.2 live system). However, it doesn't even get to the point of asking the server to install to - I get the "Cannot load database connection DLL" error pop up regardless of what I do. Any suggestions?
