Running vCenter 4 on Windows 2008 R2 Server

I have just installed the Windows 2008 R2 Server x64, then install the vCenter 4 server; the installation goes fine without any problem. I use the vSphere client (in the local server) and try to login, the error comes out (see below).

Does anyone know how to fix it?

Thanks, Michael

This is a pretty well known issue with Windows 7 at the moment. I think this is probably the same issue with 2008 R2. There exists no real fix at this time, however the following workaround takes care of the issue for the meanwhile.

Have a look:
