What exactly do you mean by "locking"? When does this "locking" occur?

You can perform this without backup of C: or systemstate of this computer (as long as AD is still alive) Maybe the systemstate restore is bad or had corrupted registry. Rebuild without the system state. If you cannot get it to work; you always have an option of blowing away the server object using adsiedit and just doing a new install using same name.
