This is because there are still pre-release Office 2010 products installed in system. It could be BETA or RC version of Office 2010 products.

To get rid of this error, simply go to your Control Panel/Programs list and remove all Office 2010 products (including Visio, SharePoint Designer) listed with version lower than 14.0.4763.1000. Once all pre-release Office 2010 products are completely removed from your machine, you will be able to install Office 2010 successfully.
