When trying to install SQL Server 2008 R2, I get the following error:

Error installing Microsoft SQL server 2008 R2 with tools! Error code: -2068578303

Does anyone know what this means?

Can you give us some more information. Like what you have found out from searching on this, or anything different that you may have been doing. Have you checked the installation log? – StanleyJohns Mar 22 '12 at 13:58
