Hi

If you run "regsvr32 msxml3.dll" and get this message box, everything
should be ok for the dll:

---------------------------
RegSvr32
---------------------------
DllRegisterServer in msxml3.dll succeeded.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

Please also try the following:

Click Start >> Run >>
Type the follow command in the Open box.
"regsvr32 wuapi.dll" (w/o quotes)
Press Ok
Type "regsvr32 wups.dll" (w/o quotes)
Press Ok
Type "regsvr32 wuaueng.dll" (w/o quotes)
Press Ok
Type "regsvr32 wucltui.dll" (w/o quotes)
Press Ok
Type "regsvr32 atl.dll" (w/o quotes)
Press Ok
