Hi all; Consider the following scenario: We want to add WDS role on our Windows Server 2008 R2 RC box. In the phase of selecting WDS components, we deselect Transport Server option. A dialog box appears that mention "You cannot remove Transport Server unless the required role services are also removed". In this dialog box we click on the "Remove Dependent Role Services" button. After doing this action, Server Manager crashes. Please look at the following figures: Any ideas? Thanks

Hi, First please restart the computer to test the issue. If the issue persists, please run the System Update Readiness Tool from the following site and paste the result in %SYSTEMROOT%\Logs\CBS\CheckSUR.log http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947821/en-us Tim Quan TechNet Subscriber Support in forum If you have any feedback on our support, please contact tngfb@microsoft.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Please remember to click “Mark as Answer” on the post that helps you, and to click “Unmark as Answer” if a marked post does not actually answer your question.

Thanks for your reply; I restarted the server with the same result. I downloaded the tool, but it says not capable to run on my server. I think this tool is designed to run on Windows Server 2008 R2, not Windows Server 2008 R2 RC . Any ideas?

Hi, Thank you for the response. I would like to confirm whether you are running Windows Server 2008 R2 RC or Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 RC.
