2008 Express Database Engine Services Failed

I am trying to install SQL Server Express 2008 and the Database Engine
Services and SQL Server Replication both fail every time.

I am trying a local install on a laptop for testing - Windows XP 3. I am
logged in as a user with local admin rights.

I keep getting a message box that access is denied.

Here is the error log text. Any help is greatly appreciated:

I get this exact same error - can't figure out why. I get it when the
Setup support files are installed.

Same problem here as well. It's only with XP. I tried it first with SP2 and
then updated to SP3 and it did the same thing. I've successfully installed
it on Vista.

I had to re-run the install and got the problem again - of course. The log
file it creates is huge. Below are a few tidbits I was able to pull out, but
they don't tell me much:

pass as it returned false and true was expected.

When the SQL Server 2008 Setup runs, it checks system requirements. Details
are closed by default. Is there any possibility that your system does not
meet the minimum requirements for a SQL Server 2008 installation? Or maybe
you are trying to install a x64 version of SQL Server 2008 on a x86 system?

Because, from the following error messages it seems that it mostly complains
about the CPU related stuff. Just a guess.
