Cannot install certificate services

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



When trying to install certificate services on any of my W2K3 SP1 servers
the installation stops with following errors (taken from the certocm.log):

0.363.965: Message Box: Microsoft Certificate Services: An error was

The Certificate Services Setup Wizard will need to be rerun to complete the
configuration.
Certificate Services setup failed with the following error: Element not
found. 0x80070490 (WIN32: 1168): Element not found. 0x80070490 (WIN32: 1168)

I'd appreciate if someone could assist in finding out what "Directory
object" or "Element" is missing.

Thanks
