    Error while Installing mssql

    When installing the mssql I'm getting to the final
    stage where is installs all the component.

    while trying to install Database server an Error shows
    up and tells me that the Instance name is already
    in use [SQLExpress]...

    how can I remove the older instance name? or maybe I should
    use a diffrent name?

    Any idea would be great :)

    Thank's!

    Look at your computer service's, look if there is a service named SQL Server (SQLExpress) if that is, stop it, and try to install again?
