I was having a similar problem with SQL XML 3.0, same error on MSXML 4. I
installed a hotfix: KB832414_MSXML4.0_x86.exe rebooted, and the problem went
away. Hope it helps.

Thank you for your reply.

I found it out!

The problem was with net framework 1.1 SP.
After I uninstalled it, and installed version 1.1 (no SP), I could
install msxml4.

There was another problem, being unable to install msxml4 (or msxml3 for
that matter) my visual studio wouldn't start, saying something ybout
xml3 not being installed correctly...
