Having major problems installing Microsoft Security Compliance Manager.
Tried on Server A and encountered Error 1603 when installing on existing sql express 2008r2 instances
Therefore tried to add a new instance in sql express and still encountered Error 1603 error after some time, therefore decided to remove all sql express instances and sql server express, I then installed the Microsoft Security Compliance Manager. afresh and now once the installation start I eventually get an error message: Unknown error (0x84b40000)
I have even tried to install this on another server without sql server express installed and encounter the same error: Unknown error (0x84b40000)
