    I'm trying to install SQL Server 2005 on a one-node Windows Server 2008
    failover clustering, but I'm getting the following error message:

    "The drive specified cannot be used for program location. Program files must
    be installed on a valid local disk available on all cluster nodes. The valid
    values are"

    No drive is shown.

    I found a Microsoft article about the problem:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/913815.
    But even using an administrator account the problem happens.
    Has anybody already faced this kind of problem?

    Thanks,

    Felipe

    I figured it out.

    I went to the registry key
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters,
    I set AutoShareServer key value to 1 and I restarted the installation. It
    works.
