Uninstalling SQL Server 2000, 2005 & 2008 on a standalone box

  • Artikel

SQL 2000

If you have SQL 2000 in your network, you will need to follow a different set of instructions.  

For uninstalling SQL 2000, refer to this article.

https://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms144255(SQL.90).aspx

Again, in case there are issues with the above, the steps listed in this article to manually remove SQL Server 2000 (standalone or cluster) will come in handy.

SQL 2005

If you have a standalone SQL Server 2005 instance on a machine, the removal should be initiated through the Add/Remove program. Read more about it in this article.

https://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-US/library/ms143412.aspx

However, I have seen situations wherein Add/Remove program couldn't remove SQL Server because of issues with the MSI installer (or other such issues). In such situations, you will have to follow the steps exactly the way they are mentioned in the following KB article.
