Known Issue. This was solved by CMDB 1.1 Patch 003 for me.
I had this problem only while generating CMDB instance IDs though.
If you are having it with plain ARS, then try a higher patch for ARS.

It should be the other way round. Install your system on 2000, upgrade that
to 2005 after shutting down the Remedy services, and then change the
compatibility level of the SQL database to 2000. That should work.
