I'm new to this business, so forgive me for asking questions of this type.

My employer has provided SAP R3 4.5b setup disks, and has asked me to set
up a sandbox system for myself and a few other consultants to play with.

I have proceeded as follows:

1. installed sql 7 and service pack 1 - installation successful, and
service starts upon windows startup.

2. installed all prerequisites per the installation guidelines - successful

3. installed sap software, with a few warnings, but no errors.

upon boot, the saposcol service is started automatically, but I have the
SAPDEV_00 service set to manual (as advised by another consultant) which I
start manually upon each reboot.

I then enter the SAP R3 management console, and start the SAP instance
(also, as advised)

this machine is running on cablemodem, and I have a permanent IP
address....so I have all of the items configured to that IP.....

now when I try to start the SAPGUI for this server, it only makes it to
about 66% (guessing from the progress bar upon sapgui startup)

Does anybody have any suggestions about what I may be doing wrong??

I've checked all of my event logs, and get no events...I'm at a loss

Mike
