SQL 2005 Install error

There was an unexpected failure during the setup wizard. You may review the setup logs and/or click the help button for more information.

This is caused when you downloaded your install files. After unzipping them you need to place the installation files in to the respective folders:
Servers
Tools

This allows the installation to find the needed files which are hard coded into the installation to look in ./Tools for the components.
