Warning don't try this at home without making a backup of your reg 
first. 8-)

Looking up on google on the error message I found a forum with someone 
having the same problem
with an CMI soundcard. He was told to go to the reg and delete every key 
that had CMI in it.

So I went to my reg looking for every key that had Ethernet in it. Most 
I could delete, but there was three
that would not delete. I got the message that there was an error in 
deleting the key.

I switched over to safemode and login as the Amd. And still couldn't 
delete the three keys.
I then RT click the key and clicked on permissions.
It  showed permissions was set for "Everybody" and "System" but the 
"full Control" box wasn't
checked. I checked that box and then was able to delete the key.

I checked the whole reg and the full control box wasn't checked so I 
checked it. Don't know if
portions of the reg is suppose to be Read only, but it isn't now.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
