I have a windows 7,32 bit laptop. I am the administrator with all permissions.
when I click on the SQL server 2008R2 set up file,it says :
"SQL server set up has encountered the following error:Failed to retreive data for this request" click on OK.
I have uninstalled all the components of SQL from control panel. I used Windows installer clean up to remove the files(which I must have not done ),but still no go.
The summary.txt log says:
