Hello,
I have heard of this error occuring during installations, when a registry key cannot be accessed (as the error message notes).  The first thing to check I think is that the key indicated in the error message actually exists in your registry.  Just click Start -> Run... and type regedit to open the registry.  Then navigate to the key indicated to verify it exists.  If it does exist, can you double click to attempt to edit it?  Do you receive any errors?  I don't recommend actually changing anything, rather to test if perhaps you don't have registry editing rights for some reason (although logging in as an administrator I think should be sufficient).
Another idea, which has solved strange problems usually related to a specific computer and perhaps a virus scanner installed, is to copy the contents of the install cd to your hardrive, and attempt to install from there.
Give those "tests" a try, and let me know how it goes.  The results should give us some more information with which to explore other potential solutions.
