Windows Vista Driving Theory Test Cd Coming Up with an Unknown Message

Hi I am in the process of doing my car test theory. All the cd's genrally do work, but this cd ( Test Theory ) shows with s
the following message:

" The theory test application is not correctly installed. The following components need to be correctly installed.

MICROSOFT XML DOM VERSION 4 . PLEASE REINSTALL CD.

I am running on vista 32 bit home basic. I did do some research and was told it may be some registry files that are corrupt, so I downloaded a free registry cleaner, but it didnt help as you have to pay for the full version.I have even gone to the microsoft website but they had all dead links there.

any help please.thanks. abs

 

It sounds like you can navigate the MS website. Try getting the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility. Uninstall the program, run the utility and reinstall it.

Is the program listed as being compatible for Vista? If is not listed, you could try running it in Compatibility Mode.

If it is Vista compatible and you have turned User Account Control off, try turning it back on (then uninstall and reinstall again).

Find the installer (usually Setup.exe), right-click on it and select Run as Administrator. You might also try doing the same thing on the program's executable file after it is installed.
