Server 2003 R2 MMC snap-in error

[Guest]

When I right click on My Computer, manage, I get a pop-up with the title "SQL
Server Configuration Manager" In the pop up appears the following message:
"MMC has detected an error in a snap-in. It is recommended that you shut down
and testart MMC"

What should I do to avoid and solve this problem.
(Server 2003 R2 with SQL Server 2005 with or without SP1)


thanks

I am having a similar problem. We just purchased the SBS2003 R2 Server. I
performed a clean install everything ran fine. (POP3 snap-in issue that
caused the same problem had an available patch on Windows Update Services).

After installing SQL 2005 Workgroup and providing the instances to
Sharepoint as well (per MS installation docs)... When I click on the "Service
and Applications" tab (under computer management) in MMC I get the following
snap-in error:

"SQL Server Configuration Manager"
MMC has detected an error in a snap-in. It is recommended that you shut down
and restart MMC.

I performed a clean install of SBS again... and avoided the SQL 2005
Workgroup Premium upgrade. However, After installing Backup Exec I am
getting this same error again..
