Registry Warnings on Target Designer Build

We've created a component for MSDE and everything looks good in Component
Designer ....

Part of that process was to import a .REG file with roughly 3300 registry
keys. During the build process, we generated about 2600 warnings of the type
"Invalid registry data fixup:" relating mostly to HKCR\CLSID\ ... there were
a few HKLM warings scattered in the log as well.

The target hung-up during the restart after FBA ... SQL Server (MSDE)
couldn't find our database instance.

Interesting note is that a build that does not include the registry import
is successful and restarts fine. After that, I can import the .REG file and
restart successfully with SQL services running OK.

What does that warning mean ... is it due to an operator error in Component
Designer?

Thanks,

Craig
