Native client cannot be found while installing SQL Server 64

We're having fun and games with the new internal dev server. We've got for Windows Server 2008 x64 for a laugh and today was a corker, while trying to install SQL Server 2005 x64 onto the box we repeatedly got an error along the lines of "native client cannot be found sqlncli_x64.msi".

Searching around the install DVD/files didn't reveal anything useful, turns out (after a little Googeling) that Microsoft install the wrong version of the SQL Server Native client tools as part of the prerequisites -instead of the 64bit version you'd expect, they go and install the 32bit which then makes the rest of the installer complain...

Classic! Anyway, thanks to Eric Falsken for the heads up on that error...
