Do you see any warning in System Configuration Check in SQL Server Setup?

I am trying to install Developer 2005 on Vista Ultimate, but whenever I run
Setup I get the usual "this program has compatibility issues" warning. If I
run the program anyways, it will only let me install Workstation components;
every other choice in is grayed out in the Setup window. Unfortunately, I
need to install an instance of SQL Server along with Analysis Services,
Integration Services and everything else.

At the compatibility issues warning window, if I follow the recommended
advice and install Service Pack 2, it doesn't resolve the issue. If I rerun
Setup, I still get the same restricted choices.

Is there anything I can do to avoid this issue? I really need to get this
stuff installed soon. Could it be a user account control (UAC) issue? I
disabled my administrator account and usually run as a user that is supposed
to have administrative privileges.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,
