MSXML 4.0 sp2 (kb973688) ruined my PC!
Nothing opens once updated widows installed MSXML 4.0 sp2 (kb973688) 11/25/09. Unable to open Windows Update, network and sharing Center, Control Panel(sometimes in classic view it comes up), Microsoft OneCare, MSCONFIG... Tried UN-installing but just blocking the PC. Most things seem to go very well in Safe Mode, but can not uninstall mode without failure. Was able to stop all applications since the 1st commissioning noticed problem when Windows OneCare would give error that stopped running. Eventually noticed it was impossible to connect to any WiFi network. Eventually figured out that basically any Microsoft application opens upward. Was working fine before this installation, previous installation has been more than 2 months before. System Restore does not see any point prior to this installation.
Hello
There seems to be a conflict with all the background are running programs. Try to perform a clean boot in safe mode and check if that helps.
Follow the steps in the article mentioned below to start in safe mode with network.
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode
If you are able to connect to the internet in safe mode with network try to download the utility Windows Installer Cleanup from the link below and try to remove the update from the computer and check if that helps.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/290301
Install the utility and run it in normal mode and then try to uninstall the update.
When on the desktop try to perform a clean boot and check that the program is causing the problem.
To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

3. on the general tab, click Selective startup, and then clear the check box load startup items. (The check box use the file Boot is not available.)
4. on the Services tab, click to select the skin all the Microsoft services check box, and then click Disable all
Note: Following this step lets services Microsoft continue to run. These services include networking, Plug-and-Play, record of events, error reporting, and other services. If you disable these services, you can permanently delete all restore points. Do not do this if you want to use with existing restore points system restore utility

Hello Alex Khristov,.
Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.
I'd say run a SFC scan to see if there is any corrupt system files.
Click Start
Click on all programs
Click Accessories, and then right-click on the command prompt.
Select the Security tab and choose "Run as Administrator"
Click on command prompt
Type SFC/scannow.
It will scan and repair any damaged operating system files.
