SQL 2008 install hangs on Windows 7
The story:
Trying to install SQL2008 on Windows 7 hangs on SqlEngineDBStartconfigAction_install_configrc_Cpu32.
What I Tried:
Uninstall hangs on validation
Manual uninstall using msiinv.exe and msiexec /x works
Added SQL service accounts to local admins no help
Turn of UAC no help
Last lines in setup log:

And now comes the fun part:
When I open conf mgr I can see the service running, I enabled named pipes and TCP/IP, restarted the service
I'm able to connect to the server using an OLE DB connection but not with the Native Client.
And what I find suspicious is the following error in my app log:
.NET Runtime Optimization Service (clr_optimization_v2.0.50727_32) - Failed to compile: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\Tools\VDT\DataProjects.dll . Error code = 0x8007000b
In MS connect this is reported as a bug but MS is unable to reproduce the problem altough when you search the fora I'm not the only one with this problem.
So any help is appreciated.
