SQL Server failed to modify security permissions on registry key supersocketnetlib

It appears that the install did not create the new group that is necessary to access SQL server.

Solution: 
Create the Domain Local Security Group in Active Directory Users and Computers and the installation will complete successfully. To do this, you will need to add the group SQLServer2005SQLBrowserUser$SERVERNAME and make it a member of administrators.

Process:
To add group, Click Start & Right click MyComputer.  Left Click on Manage--> Local Users and Groups--> Groups.

- Point to All Programs, 
- Point to Accessories, 
- Left-click Command Prompt 
- Type in the keyword "Hostname" and your Server Name is displayed
