Error: Inventory collection failed during upgrade

Attempting to upgrade the BIOS on a PE2850 with a new installation of Windows 2000 results in that error message.
PE2850_BIOS_WIN_A05.EXE

Also receive error messages (Inventory collection failed) when attempting to load BMC firmware:
ESM_FRMW_WIN_R119280.EXE
RAID_FRMW_WIN_R126663.EXE

Any shove in the right direction would be appreciated.

    This issue was resolved by the removal of the followig registry key value:

    HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor\Autorun

    At somepoint, this key was populated with a value that the installation packages did not behave properly after that point.
