XP Professional up grade installatin problem

[Wash Adams]

Was up grading XP and the following message interrupted
the install: "unregmp2.exe - Entry point not found
The procedure entry point GetIMUS cannot be located in
the dynamic link library MSDART.DLL."

Problem: Install has hung up and I cannot click "OK"
or "x" and remove the message.

Question: What is this? Why is it happening? and How
can I remedy it without closing down the up grade install?

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.

Thanks for the fix. I'm having the same problem. However, I'm doing a
Windows Repair after a serious corruption of my Documents and Settings /
UserID folder.
I was getting this same message. Thanks again.
