SQL 2008 R2 BPA

Hi,

I'm trying to install SQL 2008 R2 BPA but the installtion keeps failing half way though with the following event message


Product: Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 BPA -- Error 1722. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.  Action EnablePSRemoting, location: powershell.exe, command: -NoLogo -NoProfile -Command Enable-PSRemoting -force

Have you already eliminated these two known issues as possible candidate solutions?

tried all that and still not working
Double checking, because it's caused untold grief over the last few years... please don't be offended at the question -- but to confirm: you do know that running a command prompt (is not equal to) simply running a command prompt while logged in as an administrator user... yes?

Are you running Windows 2008 (32 or 64 bits) or Windows 2008 R2?
Are you in a domain, or non-domain environment?

When you open Power Shell with 'run as administrator' permissions and execute the 'Enable-PSRemoting' commandlet, does it give you an error message?
Yeah I always run as administrator with anything becouse it can bring funny issues up. To answer the question I am running Server 2008 R2 in a domain environment.

I will try again tommorrow everythings going wrong today :( knew I shouldn't have come in to work today.
This is one error message i'm getting by typing Enable-PSRemoting  into powershell.
