Author Upgrading MSDE 1.0 to SQL Svr 2000 Desk. Ed.

I am testing the upgrade from MSDE 1.0 to SQL Server 2000
Desktop engine and
am running into a problem

Machine specs:
P3 800MHz
656 Mb RAM
13 Gb HDD
Norton Ghost image:
OS-Windows 2000 SP1

I did the following:
Ghosted clean image and sucessfully installed SQL Server
2000 Desktop Ed
using the install provided by VS.NET
Ghosted clean image and sucessfully installed MSDE 1.0 and
created a
database
When I try to run the upgrade to SQL Server 2000 Desktop
Ed I get the
following error:

No version of MSDE was found to upgrade

I can launch osql on this machine and connect to my MSDE
1.0 database

I tried upgrading with the server running and with it
stopped
I applied SQL Server 7 SP 3

Nothing seemed to help.

Here is a sample of my setup.ini file for the SQL Server
2000 DE install.

[Options]
INSTANCENAME=
SECURITYMODE=SQL
UPGRADE=1
UPGRADEUSER=sa


Anyone run into this problem or know a solution?

Thanks.
