Which means everyone who installs Small Business Server and upgrades from express to SQL 2005 per Microsoft's recommendation will have this issue but there is nothing about this on their website. How frustrating...I have spent days trying to solve this and your site was the only one I found that gave me the answer. Thanks for taking to time to correct this stupid oversight by our friends at Microsoft.

One addition thing to note is if you're planning to install CRM on a named instance from the beginning, you can add the key (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> Microsoft -> MSCRM -> IgnoreChecks) before you first install and it works the same. I've done 3 installations with named instances so far and haven't ran into any issues. Thanks for posting this solution as it saved us time and money on a support incident.
