XP SP2 RC2 Install Issue

[DChew]

Getting a Migrate.exe Entry Point not found

The procedure entry point GetTextExtendPointIX could not be found in Dynamic Link Library MSDART.DLL.


I think that an install built for Win2K changed some dll's on this machine changed a file in System32 and XP POP'ed a WFP error and I ignored it. Since I ignored it and WPF is out of SYNC RC2 SP2 for XP installation is halted. Not sure what to do now..

Restore your backup image. You are using beta software which is NOT
intended for anything but testing purposes, so if you were smart, you
created a backup image of your OS partition.

Of course this is a test machine....

my point is that there is something that MS needs to do in addition to the checks that they are currently doing...!!
