Failed to register the security service

I am installing CRM and get the following error: "Failed to register the
security Service: Retry, Abort or Ingore"

I had CRM installed using MSDN subscription, recently purchased so I ended
up uninstalling CRM and it is during the re-install I see this error. I
followed a KB article on removing CRM by using Add/Remove Programs to remove
CRM and then delete the CRM folder in program files. I then deleted the
associated Website in IIS and recreated a new one to host the new install of
CRM. I deleted the OU in the AD for the old Installation groups. I rebooted.
and then started the re-installation.

Any ideas on why the security sevice won't register?
thanks,
Kim

Well, I figured it out on my own. I had decided to use a different account to
install with and I did not have adequate permissions for this account on the
SQL machine. I configured the perm's correctly and it worked.

Glad I got it working
