For ending with the products related to SQLServer 2008 download and install the SQL Server 2008 Analysis Services ADODM.NET. This is normally installed by the prerequisites installation of SharePoint 2010, but I had issues letting the SharePoint 2010 wizard install it, so I prefer to do it manually.

As there is sometimes concern with the SharePoint Services installation with Windows 2008 Server R2, you should check that the services installation has completed successfully.
On SharePoint 2010 Central Administration Home Page under the System Settings section click Manage services on server.

You should see this screen that confirms that SharePoint Services installation has completed successfully.
