Hi,
I was running WIn XP Pro when it went down with some type
of DLL error. I searched the knowledgebase for a
solution which was an in-place upgrade. The problem is
that about half way through the install, the progress
stops because of a pop-up box reading "unregmp2.exe -
entry point not found". I can not get rid of the box to
proceed.
Help
 
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.

Hi,
Thanks for the info. I tried to end the program but when
I tab down to the end button and hit enter, the task mgr
minimizes and the program doesn't close.
