The thing is I have installed the latest update to MSXML4 SP3 - in fact WU did it for me, but there is no MSXML4.dll in Windows/System32. 3 and 6 are there OK.
I can't figure out why this is as I haven't done any registry cleaning.
Tried sfc /scannow, it finishes OK but it says some files are corrupted.
This is my spare Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 on Disk 1 partition 1 - in other words the 4th in a row of multi-boots with the boot files residing in Vista on C: (It goes C:, D:, then on the next disk L: and M:
Dare I stick a Win 7 SP1 installation disk in and do an upgrade/repair install? Will that lose me my mutli-boot?
Edit: I checked both my Windows 7 installations on my main PC and the one on my Netbook and neither one carries it. Neither do any of my Vista installations. But they all have the MSXML 4 SDK installed by Windows Update - but that installs into Program Files (x86) not the Systemroot.
Perhaps there is a glitch in the installer as it seems to be thinking everyone has XP, as it has all - MSXML2,3, 4, and 6 DLL's in that exact location.
Ideas anyone?
