SQL Server Native Client Cannot be Found

Recently when I try to install SQL Server 2005 I got the following error saying that Microsoft SQL Server Native Client cannot be found. A screen shot of the error is as follows.This error is due if the SQL Server Native Client is already installed using a different edition of SQL Server.
The resolution for this is to uninstall all the SQL related stuff (specially SQL Native Client) which are installed in the computer and try the SQL installation again after doing a system restart.
