unregmp2.exe - Entry Point Not Found

[FLO]

After trying to fix Windows Backp Uitlity and lead by a
MS Technichian by phone, I ended up repairing my Windows
XP-H and getting this message:

"unregmp2.exe - Entry Point Not Found - The procedure
entry point GetIUMS could not be located in the dynamic
link library MSDART.LL"

and the only button is OK. Well, I click OK again and
again and again and get continuosly the very same error.
When tried to close window with "X" same as before.

I am afraid I will mess up my PC if I turned the power
off and restart! Please HELP! I am trying to fix a
problem since 08-18-04... If you know how to help me,
please, please, please!

Step1: With the error on the screen, Press "Shift + F10" to open the Command Prompt.

Step2: In the command prompt window type "taskmgr.exe" (without the quotes) and hit enter to bring up the Task Manager.

Step3: When the Task Manager comes up terminate the error message by selecting the error message from under the Applications tab
and clicking on End Task and then End.

Note: If this does not end the task in the Applications tab, you will then have to go to the Processes tab and end the UnRegmp2.exe
process which identifies the error message and click End Process to terminate the process.

Step4: You may have to click End Process repeatedly until the error message is gone.

Step5: Once you confirm that the task is no longer listed, type "exit" in the Command Prompt and press Enter.

Setp6: Continue with the install.

The installation will proceed without any problems. Do this whenever the error message comes up during the Installation phase and the
installation will proceed without any problems.

Note: When you open Windows Media Player after getting back to Windows you will get the same error message that you got during the
Repair install. So in order to resolve this issue you can download and install the latest version of MDAC, which is MDAC 2.8.
