Reboot During Registry Backup of SP2 Install

I'm having a problem installing SP2 on one computer. It seems fine till it
gets to the point where it says backing up Registry. Once it gets to that
point it runs for about 5 seconds and then the computer spontaneously
reboots. No error messages or anything. Other than this, the computer is
functioning normally. Any ideas on this one?

Hi

Use SubInAcl.exe to change the registry permissions and see if that
helps:
