SCOM 2012 R2 Reporting fails to install, no error just a red cross/circle

I’ve found a weird error installing SCOM 2012R2 Reporting.When I moved through the wizard and then selected the SQL Server is just showed a red cross next to the name.no error popped up, but it wouldn’t let me progress any further.Looking in the “Windows Application Log” I saw the below error.

_Log Name: Application_
_Source: Report Server (MSSQLSERVER)_
_Date: 23/09/2014 14:22:02_
_Event ID: 106_
_Task Category: Scheduling_
_Level:  Error_
_Keywords: Classic_
_User: N/A_
_Computer: SCORCH01.Test.Lab_
_Description:_
_Scheduled operations cannot be created. SQL Server Agent is not running._

Starting the SQL Server Agent allowed the install to continue. Bizzare.
