I'm installing SQL Server 2012 Developer on a Windows Azure virtual machine which has Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 Datacenter operating system with Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate SP1 installed. The installation fails with the "Rule "Fusion Active Template Library (ATL)" failed." error. I tried installing SQL Server 2008 R2 Developer but I got the same error message.
I tried to apply KB955792 "The Fusion ATL rule check fails when you try to uninstall a SQL Server 2008 instance or when you try to remove a SQL Server 2008 node from a failover cluster" (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/955792) but there's no Sqlsupport.msi installation file on SQL Server media.
Setup log:

There are not pending rename operations and restarting the server does not fix the problem.
How can I solve this problem?
Best regards,
