[dba-SQLServer] Weird Problem with SQL 2005

if you nuke the folder you can user a product like ccleaner (avail
from filehippo.com) and it should just re-install, just to test out
the scenario i'm uninstalling Rs2005 / sql 2005 from my vm to see if I
can reproduce the problem

After reinstalling Windows, I then reinstalled SQL 2005 and Visual Studio 2005. When installing SQL 2005, however, the Reporting Services checkbox was greyed out. It wasn't that way before. Anyone got any idea why I can't install RS? I've poked around and I can't see anything amiss.
