I have NAV 2009 SP1 installed in my Laptop.
Now I am trying to install NAV 2009 R2, for this I have done following steps..
1) Uninstalled from Control Panel and Setup.exe
2) Deleted Microsoft Dynamics NAV Folder from C:\Program Files (x86)
3) Restarted Laptop
4) Ran setup.exe from R2 DVD folder
Now the error message is attached
and Microsoft Dynamics Server service is not installed in Services..
If I try to install Service manually it is displaying
[Window Title]
Windows Installer
[Main Instruction]
Another version of this product is already installed. Installation of this version cannot continue. To configure or remove the existing version of this product, use Add/Remove Programs on the Control Panel.
[OK]
If I look at Add/Remove Programs on the Control Panel, I found nothing related to NAV 2009 SP1..
FYI:I am the administrator of Laptop.
What am I missing? :-k

Don't Run Setup.exe from the Navision 2009 R2 DVD.
Try using Autorun.exe from the DVD. By using this it will install all pre-requisites required for Navision R2.

I have had problems with setup because i placed it in a "deep" folder (e.g. the desktop folder). It seems that the installer doesn't like long paths. Try to move the installer under your C:\ folder (which is the shortest one )

did you already try to redownload a fresh installer?
and also, did you find the nav server folder in the installation folder?
it seems that it doesn't exist or you can't access it. (did you already figure out this? )

1. Re install NAV 2009 SP1
2. Run repair from the installer
3. Un install the product
4. Verify that all files are removed from C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Dynamics NAV
5. Run NAV 2009 R2 installer again
If this fail you can try the dirty trick by deleting the product from registry (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall or corresponding 64 bit path) followed by a repair of NAV 2009 R2. It's not a supported way to-do it but it may solve your problem.
