Sql-server – Error configuring SQL Reporting Services 2005 on Windows 7

iis-7sql serverssrswindows 7

I've installed SQL Server 2005 with Reporting Services on Windows 7 Ultimate x64 and when I try to configure it when clicking on "Windows Service Identity" I get this error message:

There was an error while switching panels. The most likely cause is an error retrieving WMI properties. The exception details are:

InvalidArgument=Value of '1' is not valid for 'SelectedIndex'.
Parameter name: SelectedIndex

Here is a screenshot: error message


EDIT:

This problem disappeared after I installed SP3 for SQL Server. I have problems on the next panes though.

Now on the Web Service Identity pane the ASP.net service account textbox is empty, I select classic app pool for both dropdowns -> click apply and I get an error
"There was an error setting the identity for the web service. The previously set identity will be used." and the details:

ReportServicesConfigUI.WMIProvider.WMIProviderException: The account name is not valid. Specify an account in the form domain\alias.
   at ReportServicesConfigUI.WMIProvider.RSReportServerAdmin.SetWebServiceIdentity(String applicationPool)

Try setting up a new application pool (I'm assuming you had it use an existing one but I could be wrong.) and set the user to one of the predefined ones, I use Network Service for just about everything. If this is on a workstation that is not joined to a domain then the domain\username thing won't really work unless it's "workstationname\username" and you use a local account. Network Service is the safest route here. Also check to make sure that Network Service is set up to be in the local group named IIS_WPG on the workstation and that this user has full control on the report server and report manager directories.
