SQL Server Express Silent Install woes


i have read quite number of different articles , examples unattended installation.  tried both sql 2008 express , sql 2012 express same results.  running on windows 2008 server x64.

i boiled command line down essentials saw different examples.

setup.exe /action=install /qs /instancename="win2008-1\nlm" /iacceptsqlserverlicenseterms=1 /features=sqlengine /sqlsysadminaccounts="win2008-1\administrator"

i run command window administrator. in addition, machine does have dotnet 4.0 on it.

however install fails , ends error @ end of setup.log:

setup closed exit code: 0x84c40013

i must have read dozen articles this. 1 person said make options uppercase. said make sure run administrator, yet machine must have dotnet 4 or later on it.  check, check , check.

any suggestions appreciated.

thanks.
