I'm trying to install SAL Server 2008 R2 (x64) Express, but it won't install. I got these error message:
TITLE: SQL Server Setup failure.
SQL Server Setup has encountered the following error:
Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: productVersion.
Any suggestions for help, please?

Take a look at this. I've also seen this error before. With my issue, I had deleted all old registry entries and it worked. I had also come across this.
