Cannot install protocol tcpip v6

[Guest]

I am receiving the following error when I try to install the Tcpip v6 protocol

Could not add requested component.
The error is: An extended error occured.

I have done a search but cannot find anything that helps.

I am running XP Home Edition Version 2002 with service pack 2

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Tony

Are you sure you need v6? It is quite different from v4, and not
necessarily better.

I think you are missing the point. i am receiving an error and I am trying to
get some information about it and find out what I can do to resolve it.
Whether I need it or not is not the point.

What details do you see in Event Viewer?

I tried adding it again and had a look in the logs. There was no information
there about what had happened. The error is not generating an event
