Some things to try:

1. Confirm that you are attempting to install EA with Admin privileges.  If not, re-install with Admin privileges.
 
If you attempting to install EA to a custom location (i.e. not the default location under C:\Program Files\...), confirm whether you have read/write permissions to the target location.
 
2. Try temporarily disabling any antivirus, anti-spyware, etc that is running on your PC.  Try installing EA again.
 
3. Manually register the MSXML parser
 
- Start > Run
- regsvr32 msxml3.dll
- Click OK
 
then...

- Start > Run
- regsvr32 msxml4.dll
- Click OK

(Try installing Enterprise Architect again.)

4. Try installing MSXML 4.0 SP2. Please refer to the following link to download from the Microsoft website:
