Download the MSDE2000A.EXE from microsoft. You run thiw first, and it will decompress to C:\MSDERelA folder. If you run it with /s it will not display a user interface. Then you can run the Setup.Exe using some fo the arguments documented in the readme. A word of caution, even though the documentaiton says that the targedir must end with a backslash, this is just not true :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: You can read/process the log file to see how successful setup was, if the exit code from the process is 0.
