I keep receiving the following errors:

and then the following error:

Googling on HRESULT 8007370B doesn't yield much results except for people who are looking for "System Update Readiness".
I've run multiple "registry fix" programs;
sfc /SCANNOW gives me the error "windows resource protection could not perform the requested operation".
Anyone have any ideas?

EDIT: I installed 2008 R2 on the same machine with no problems. I then tried both a full install of 2014 and an "upgrade" install, both resulting in the same error above.
I managed to fix the issue and got SQL Server 2014 installed.
Since the C++ updates wouldn’t get installed (or whatever the issue was with that VC80.ATL message, I did a backtrack and looked for programs that would fix Windows Update issues.
I found the Windows Readiness Tool: http://mintywhite.com/windows-7/7maintenance/trouble-installing-windows-updates-system-update-readiness-tool-windows/
I ran it. It took about 20 minutes to run.
I then ran the SQL Server 2014 installation and everything went through fine.
Thank you everyone.
I just had this issue a few minutes ago. I had a pending Windows Update reboot while I was trying to install it. After I rebooted and let the update finish the SQL Server install went through fine.
This can also happen because of some corrupted files. See this MSDN post (it's for an older SQL Server version but it's the same issue with the same file, you'll have to repair a C++ redistributable install).
(Steps from the blog post for posterity, they may need to be altered slightly depending on if you need the x86 or x64 redistributable)
Once the repair is complete, start the SQL Setup and this should help installing SQL Server successfully
Recently I got the same errorcode with an Installation of SQL Server 2008 R2 in Windows 2008 SP2. Solution was to download and install the Visual C Redistributable Package. (VC80) and afterwards retry the installation again. I guess that it's also the case for Windows 7. In this Blog Post I summarized it also with the Downloadlink from Microsoft.
https://cms4j.wordpress.com/2016/12/12/sql-server-2008-r2-installation-failed-2068052081-1212-1935/
6 years later, I still encountered this same problem, same error message in Windows 10.
What fixed it for me is to go to DCOMCNFG and set the Authentication Level to "Connect".
Prior to that, it was set to "None".

I downloaded the fresh copy from microsoft website for the installation and installation succeeded perfectly. As others are saying to check the prerequisites for the installation. It is by default tested by the setup of sql. I only proceed after completing the prerequisite. but there were errors. but with clean copy of iso downloaded from microsoft it resolved.
