I am using an English version and successfully rebuilt the counters using the command prompt. After uninstalling any related SQL 2008 components, I attempted to reinstall. It seemed as though it was going to be successful because it took considerable longer and went through the install process, but I received the same failure to install window. However, it seems to be a different error, below are the 2 logs:
Overall summary:
