Problem with ICP 2.2 INI to XML Converter

I get the following error when call a IVI driver programmatically or when I try to run the INI to XML converter:

IviConfigServer.IviConfigStore.1eserialize failed.  Can not create XML DOMDocument. Please check your XML parser installation.

I've uninstalled ICP 2.2 and used the Shared Components Cleanup Utility, rebooted and then reinstalled ICP 2.2.  I've even reinstall MSXML parser 3.0 sp5.  I'm still getting this error.  Any other ideas or should I just bite the bullet and reinstall LabView?

It is possible that some other software on your system have installed the XML parser so you should try to install the XML parser from the Microsoft web site (I believe that the latest version is 4.0 SP2) or try to register the msxml4.dll (Start>>Run menu: regsvr32 msxml4.dll)
 
We have recently had an issue where the Intel network drivers haven't been properly registering the msxml4.dll on the system. Re-installing LabVIEW probably won't help. Uninstalling ICP and IVI Shared Components (complete uninstall) from the Add/Remove Programs should remove all IVI components. You can then search for the XML parser and check its version and DLL registration. 
 
Please let us know if this does not solve the problem!
 
Thanks and regards,

I had actually already tried updating the XML parser from MS.  The DLLs checked out ok aswell.  In the end, reinstalling LabView did the trick.  I supect that the ICP 2.2 install was corrupt since I was performing it from a User account using Runas.  Repeated the install procedure by loging in with an Admin account worked.  I would try to regenerate the corrupt install but myself and others have tasks pending that require the use of the computer concerned in the inquiry.  Anyone, please let me know if you can comfirm my supision for future reference.

Thanks for you help!
