GetIUMS Error

[ajtully]

While re-installing Windows XP Pro on my home machine I
ran across a hard stop loop error. Message reads:

Title Bar: unregmp2.exe Entry Point Not Found

Body: The procedure entry point GetIUMS could not be
located in dynamic link library MSDART.DLL

Command button: OK (is the only option)

Computer now locked in a boot loop! (#$@!)

Anyone have any ideas?

When the problem occurs, press Shift +F10 to bring up the
command prompt. Then type taskmgr.exe in the DOS window
and press Enter. The Task Manager should be started. If
not, try to press C+Shift+ESC. In the Task Manager
program, select the error messsage window in the
application list and click "End Task". In the process
list, terminate the unregmp2.exe program. Exit the DOS
prompt window and resume the installation process.
