On a Win 7 x64 Ultimate box, I am unable to install 2008 SSMS. (Sql Server Express 2008 installed without SSMS from Visual Studio 2010 installation.)
I removed all SQL components and downloaded x64 and then tried x86 SSExpWT. Both failed with the same error. I realize this is not an Express forum but hoping I get some direction quickly. Thanks in Advance.

WRN: Assembly binding logging is turned OFF.
To enable assembly bind failure logging, set the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog] (DWORD) to 1.
Note: There is some performance penalty associated with assembly bind failure logging.
To turn this feature off, remove the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog].
