Cannot Install SP4 for SQL Server 2000

I am trying to install SP4 for SQL Server 2000.
When I click on the setup.bat, I get the message:
Setup Initialization Error
Access is denied
Source: 'C\SQL2kSP4\x86\setup\saqlsore.ini'
Target: 'C:\Document~1\dave\locals~1\temp\setups
ql.ini'
I am installing the standard version of SQL Server on to Windows XP with
latest service packs.
According to the SP instructions, I set Local Security Policy | Local
Policies | Security Options to Silently Succeed for Devices: Unsigned
driver installation behavior.
I even gave "everyone" full control to C:\Documents and Settings\dave\Local
Settings\Temp
Still I get this error.
Does anyone have an ideas what I can do to avoid this error?Hello Dave,
I understand that you encountered error message "Setup Initialization Error
Access is denied" when installing SQL 2000 SP4. Please let me know if it's
not correct.
Based on my experience, the problem is the setupsql.ini file already exist
in that default folder C:\Document~1\dave\locals~1\temp\. You may want to
remove the file from that folder and try to run setup again.
If above method do not work, please try to log on as a different user with
local admin rights to try to install SP4.
If the issue persists, you may want to remove the folder C:\SQL2kSP4\, and
extract the setup file from the compressed exe file again.
Please let's know if this resolve the issue. I look forward to your update.
Thanks.
