When installing the SQL7eval in an NT4 SP5 box,  installation setup fails.

The cnfgsvr.out  file reports:
--------------------------------------
Starting Service ...
An error occurred while attempting to start the service (1058)
SQL Server configuration failed.
--------------------------------------------

Bellow the sqlstp.log last lines:

- make sure Client for MS networks as the primary net logon
- try disabling multiprotocol net library (even tcp/ip if this does not
work)
