Install Database Components SP3a

Hi,
Do I need to know the sa password when I install Database Components for
SP3a? The extracted service pack files is in the directory of the local
computer.
Thanks.Only if you're installing on the SQL Server/MSDE, not for the clients.

SQL Server should suffice I suppose. "sa" account is safe and sure to have
all the access to the database files for sure.
