Report Services Instance not found

after re-installing sql server 2005 server reporting services when i start the Reporting Services Configuration Manager a message pops up saying "Not Found", at the instance selection screen. when i type in the name of the server and click find i get the same message.. what am i doing wrong?

THe next steps would be:

-Is the Reporting Service started properly ?
-Which port is Reporting Manager using ? (see in the IIS configuration)
-Do you have Sharepoint installed on the machine ?
-Is the Report Service available ? (e.g. http://localhost/ReportServer)

|||When i go to sql server 2005 surface area to check if the report service is running i see the service listed under Surface area configuration for Services and Connection and it is started by local system. when i go to Surface Area configuration for features and i click on reporting services a message pops up that says Not Found (System.Management) why is this?
