During installation of SQL Server 2008 express I get the error "SQL Server Browser service group does not exists. Check
for earlier failures in the setup."
This prevents me from installing it completely it seems. After the install the SQL database service will not run.
In this case I'm attempting to install it so Autodesk Vault will install afterwards so the instance in question is
autodeskvault.
Please let me know what other information you need.
-Tim.
Additional info from setup finish screen:
"Information about the Setup operation or possible next steps:
