Seriously, thank you! This fixed my problem too. I also have ArcGIS installed, same version. I had no idea it was the root of my problems. After the registry change, I was able to install Windows 2005 C++ redistribution. My installation of AutoDesk completed without errors. I have been working on this for days. Again, thank you! I was dubious of this suggestion, but I was at my wits end and it worked.

I solved this problem in case anyone is still having trouble. I just uninstalled all Visual C++ Redistributable packages in the Add/Remove Programs. All Autodesk programs installed fine after. Then Windows Update wanted to update all Visual packages with several restarts.
