MikTeX 2.6 Installation problem

Hi all,

I am trying to install MikTeX 2.6 on my Win XP machine. I successfully

downloaded the complete installation and the installer seemed to make

its way through all the installation files, but got hung up with some

initexmf issue:

====================================

loading lightweight database file...

C:\texmf\miktex\bin\initexmf.exe --shared-setup=1 --log-file=C:\texmf

\miktex\config\uninst.log --verbose:

C:\texmf\miktex\bin\initexmf.exe --install-root=C:\texmf --roots=C:

\texmf;C:\texmf --rmfndb --log-file=C:\texmf\miktex\config\uninst.log

--verbose:

Registering root directories...

initexmf.exe: Unexpected condition.

An error occurred:

source file: C:\work3\miktex-2.6\Libraries\MiKTeX\Core\Process.cpp

source line: 298

message: The operation failed for some reason.

info: C:\texmf\miktex\bin\initexmf.exe

====================================

The following links to the complete setup log:

I'm stumped.

Thanks,
