Hi Brown,

Welcome to the MSDN forum.

From your log, I think the problem is related to installation packages, so I recommend you try to redownload ISO file of Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate: http://download.microsoft.com/download/2/4/7/24733615-AA11-42E9-8883-E28CDCA88ED5/X16-42552VS2010UltimTrial1.iso

The CRC and SHA1 hash values of your downloaded ISO image should match these:

CRC: 0x8095c67f

SHA-1: 0x8371f6a8d090063fcc320617e94854374633df3c

Second, please extract ISO file to your hard disk.

Third, complete or dismiss Windows Updates before installation (but turn on Windows Update service).

Then, clean up your “%temp%” folder (Start>>Run>>%temp%).

Next, check if there are any anti-virus or antispyware applications running. Make sure they are turned off during installation.

Finally, run the setup file with Administrator privileges: Right-click the installer > Run as administrator.

If the problem still exists after these steps, could you please collect the fresh logs for me?

• Download and run the Log Collection Tool: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=e0da314f-6216-4a18-bc6b-7d29cf83af20&displaylang=en
• Upload the vslogs.cabfile located in %temp%
  folder to an open website like Windows Live SkyDrive or send it to me (E-mail:
  v-alsun_at_microsoft_dot_com).

Note: Please attach the link of this post in the mail.

If you have any other problems, please feel free to let me know.

Best Regards,
