Installation of SQL Express 2005 fails the error: "Failed to install SQL Express BKUPEXEC instance with error 1706."
Solution
While

Backup Exec is installed on a server that has an existing MSDE or SQL instance
already present.

Even when
installing SQL Express 2005 separately, a failure will sometimes result with an
error:
As per Microsoft Article No : 910229: 2.11 Existing SQL Native Client Installation May Cause Setup to Fail, Backup Exec setup might fail and roll back with the following error message:
An
installation package for the product Microsoft SQL Native Client cannot be
found. Try the installation again using a valid copy of the installation package
'Sqlncli.msi'.
To work around
this problem:
1. Uninstall
the SQL Native Client by using Add or Remove Programs.
2. On a
cluster, uninstall the SQL Native Client from all nodes. Then, run SQL Server
Setup again.
3. The same
thing has to be done with the MS SQL VSS writer. Uninstall the existing one from
Add/Remove programs, and then run SQL server setup again.
