    If repair hasn't work for you than as suggested in previous post you should reinstall BE.

    Refer to the below article for more information on how to reinstall Backup Exec without losing any data.

What you are facing was a known issue with BE 12.0 as outlined in http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH67566

This was fixed in later versions of BE. You can try to choose Repair and let the repair complete. Once the repair completes, try to choose install again and see if additional options appear or not.

As an extreme last resort, another option is to reinstall Backup Exec retaining the Data & Catalogs.
