Funny Results from using Surface Area Configuration for Features

Hi,
I am using a Windows account that is a local admin on the server yet when I
use Surface Area Configuration for features I only see Reporting Services
and Integration Services. I understand that this feature is using WMI but
what would stop me from seeing the actual Database Engine components?
Thanks
ChrisWorse still I can only see those 2 services when I use the Configuration
Manager/SQL Server 2005 Services. Some how I have lost the ability to see
all the services. I would have to believe that this is a permissions
problem?
Thanks
Chris

Windows Account, used Microsoft Update to update the server? Has some
permissions been changed to the other account?
Thanks
