While I install the Realtek RTL8139 chipset 10/100 Ethernet driver to Windows 2000 Advanced Server, I am getting the below error message. "An error occured during the installation of the device. The data is invalid"
I can not install the ethernet driver because of the above error message. Is there anybody who knows and solves that problem?

Same problem here, also with another Ethernet card. Which mainboard do you have.
I have a ASUS A7V266-EX
Exactly same problem with Asus P3V4X and two different ethernet card (1 Belkin, 1 vanilla). Anybody have any ideas? I'm stuck!
I just had precisely the same problem, but with an SMC card. I found a fix that worked perfectly here:

A quicker and more reliable solution,
that should work for all driver installation problems with "Acccess denied" or "data invalid" is to use regedt32, go to "HKEY_LOCAL_KEY/SYSTEM/CURRENTCONTROLSET/ENUM" (so ENUM is highlighted) and then set the permissions (System Allow Full Control to Yes) recursively by using the 'Advanced' button in the 'Permmisions' dialogue and set the recursive option. This will bring a warning and an extra dialogue that not all could be set, yet it should work.
