SQL Server 2008 R2 Setup Error - is not a valid login or you do not have permission

This time i had face another one issue. When I was trying to install SQL 2008 R2 enterprise edition on my laptop i got below error.

is not a valid login or you do not have permission | MS SQL Server 2008 Express



A couple of days ago I bought a virtual server from Godaddy and the first application than I have to install was MS SQL Server 2008 R2 Express. But something was wrong, every time I tried to install SQL Server 2008 express I had the same error message is not a valid login or you do not have permission.?





TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 Setup
------------------------------
The following error has occurred:
'' is not a valid login or you do not have permission.
------------------------------
This error message was meaningful, because I installed it using my account with has administrator access.
I tried to remove and reinstall SQL Server, I tried different versions of SQL Server, but nothing helped.
But finally I found a solution how to avoid this error message is not a valid login or you do not have permission
By default godaddy virtual server has the same name as user account and this was the reason of error message.
I renamed my server and error disappeared and I was able to install SQL Server Express without errors.
