I faced similar error while installing VS 2005 in my colleague’s machine (WinXP SP3).
We tried to uninstall MSXML 6.0 Parser and failed. Removing registry keys is seems to be difficult, so we downloaded
Windows Installer Cleanup Utility and removed “MSXML 6.0 Parser”.
Then we installed VS 2005 successfully.
Hope this information may help someone
It definitely did help me, Sandeep!
I had the exact same error, wasn't able to SQL Server 2005 because of MSXML was not being updated. So I tried to remove it, didn't work. It was driving me nuts and then I came across your post.
I tried it and it worked perfectly for me, many thanks!
