OK, I did a clean restart and right at the beginning of the system log
in the event viewer was "The server 1BE1F766-5536-11D1-B726-00C04FB926AF
did not register with DCOM within the required timeout". That's the only
error apart from the RSM not being able to configure my tape drive. I
suspect it has to do with the fact that I hadn't restarted my server
since applying the latest patches/updates, but of course now I can't
uninstall or reinstall anything. Google has 2,670 hits for that CLSID
but I haven't found the helpful one yet... any suggestions?
