If I understand correctly your registry has the value 02h stored as a DWORD therefore trying to display it as a string would give you the Start of Text charcter followed by 3 NULL characters, so your MessageBox will probably display nothing. You might consider converting the DWORD to ASCII.

HTH,

i have tested with

invoke GetRegValueInt,addr szKey,addr szRegBinary, addr hString
invoke dw2a,addr hString,addr lpBuffer
invoke MessageBox,hWnd,addr lpBuffer,0,MB_OK

result is 42006628

this works not sry :(

As posted your Message Box should display:   (). Which is the Start of Text character followed by a terminating null character.

Try
          lea edx,hString
          add edx,4
          invoke MessageBox,hWnd,edx,0,MB_OK

or
          lea edx,hString
          add DWORD PTR[edx],030303030h
          invoke MessageBox,hWnd,addr hString,0,MB_OK
