This has been frustrating me for weeks. I have had sql 2014 on my machine since I installed it over a year ago. Why does it now blow up on me. I cannot reinstall it. Every time the Dabase Engine Services and SQL Server Replication fails. Everything else
installs. How do I get this to work? How can I show you the detail.txt file ? I don't think I can paste it into there. I tried already. Will it work?
