Use System Account option is disabled

Hi al;

When Installing vCenter Server 4.0, in the vCenter Server Service page, the Use System Account option is dimmed and I cannot select it. Why?

P.S. This option is availble when I use SQL Express, but when I use Use An Existing Supported Database, the mentioned option is disabled...

Can anyone help me?

Thanks

-Reza

Is your SQL server configured to use Windows authentication?

If so, you can't use the system account.

Which database is your existing supported one?
