--- Comment #2 from Omega Software <development at winomega.com> ---
Reproduced it again, this time with 1.8.0.

I think I found the factors that cause it. Steps to reproduce:

1. Remove ~/.wine and ~/.cache/wine.

2. Start wine directly to run the installer (womega.exe), before creating a
prefix.

3. Since you removed Mono and Gecko installer from cache, a dialog asking to
download Mono pops up, say yes (I think the same would happen with Gecko, but
haven't tried).

4. When Mono download is aproximately at 60%, the installer starts, and at this
point the wine prefix is not fully configured yet. The following errors are
printed:

wineserver: could not save registry branch to system.reg : No such file or
directory
wineserver: could not save registry branch to userdef.reg : No such file or
directory
wineserver: could not save registry branch to user.reg : No such file or
directory

and as a consequence %SystemDrive% cannot be resolved.

The problem might not be specific to InnoSetup after all. I expect any program
attempting to resolve %SystemDrive would end the same.
