Client installation of sql server

Hi,
I have both client and server of 2000 version sql server installed on my xp
machine. However, I need to install 2005 sql server client software on the
same machine. After I install this, I cannot see the program. Do I have to
unstall 2000 client software to work on 2005 client software. I would
appreciate any help on this matter.
Thanks in advanceThanks for your help Sailesh. I appreciate it.

What "program" is it that you don't see? SQL Server management studio? If so, perhaps you didn't
select to install the workstation components when you installed 2005?

bootstarp folder to see if the installation was successful.
