Hello - I am trying to do a an upgrade from Standard to Enterprise using the SQL Server Installation center (Maintenance | Edition upgrade)
During setup I get the following error: "The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it."
The summary file (shown in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Setup Bootstrap\Log\20130416_141115) shows it fails when it gets to report services.
I followed the steps to remover report services
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143518(v=sql.90).aspx
Still, same error - I then tried installing Report Services to make it happy - but the setup thinks report services is still there.
Any advice on either installing it or getting rid of Report Services so I can upgrade would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Check the services running from Config Manager. Check all are enabled.
I just did this last week. You can follow the instructions from - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc707783.aspx
It should run and upgrade in minutes..
Hope this helps...!
Cheers,
