    You should at least disable the "SMS_ActiveSyncService" and
    "SMS_ActiveSyncConnectedDevice" since these are for the device management
    (beta) feature.
    I seem to recall from a previous post that these classes will be created
    once the feature pack is installed in the client machines, or at least have
    run once. Have you done this already and still getting the failures?
