Installing SQL Server 2005 - Vista help..

Ok ive tried looking everywhere for a solution but i just cant find one... please help me

I need to install SQL Server 2005 (for reporting services mainly) on Vista, but i have issues.

I have installed IIS and its checked in the pre-installation checklist, and the only thing with an exclamation point is the OS which is to be expected.

The issue im having is that when i get to the screen to select the features/components i want to install, they are all disabled apart from "Workstation components, Books online etc..."

Where am i going wrong with this.. I know i need the services pack to install reporting services, but i cant install anything at this point.

A walkthrough or something would really help...

Thanks!
