    I cannot start VB.NET, always gives error message

    Hello all.. please help me, I want to try VB.NET, but after I install VisualStudio.NET, I can't run it.

    Each time I start VS.NET, it gives me an error message:

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------
    XML Parsing Error
    file://C:\Program Files XP\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET\Common7\IDE\html\SMLLinks\1033\msdntrn.xml(0,0):XML Error C00CE508: An invalid character was found in text content.
    [no source]
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------

    Then I press OK, the same error message appears again, then I Press OK again, takes me to VS.NET Environment.

    Now, if I want to make a new project, any Visual Basic project, it gives me an error. For example, if I want to make a new Windows Application project, it gives me this error:

    ---------------------------------
    Microsoft Development Environment
    Default.js or default.vbs not found in C:\Program Files XP\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET\Vb7\VBWizards\WindowsApplication\Script\1033
    ---------------------------------

    When I look into that directory, the file default.js exists!

    If I try to make new ASP.NET Web Application, it gives me this error:
    ---------------------------------
    Microsoft Development Environment
    Default.js or default.vbs not found in C:\Program Files XP\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET\Vb7\VBWizards\WebApplication\Scripts\1033
    ---------------------------------

    And when I look into the directory, the file default.js also exists!
    It gives me an error like that each time I try to make a new project.

    Oh, in the installation process, I had 2 error messages when I reached disc 4 of VS.NET CDs. It says cannot register these files:
    C:\PROGRAM FILES XP\MICROSOFT VISUAL STUDIO.NET\COMMON7\TOOLS\ANALYZER\VAPKG\VAVSA.DLL

    C:\PROGRAM FILES XP\MICROSOFT VISUAL STUDIO.NET\COMMON7\TOOLS\ANALYZER\BRIDGES\WMI\PROFDEFV7.DLL

    What could be wrong? I have tried uninstalling and then install again, but it still the same.

    Thanks

    Heres a plan, delete the whole C:\Program Files XP\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET\ and reinstall it. If this is a demo program I dunno how your license works, Ill let you take your chances .
