SYMPTOMS
You cannot run the Microsoft Windows .NET Server 2003 Administration Tools Pack (Adminpak.msi) on a computer that is running Windows XP Professional.
CAUSE
This problem occurs because the version of Dsprop.dll that is included with Windows XP Professional has been updated. The Dsprop.dll file is shipped in Windows XP but it has been changed in Windows .NET Server. Windows .NET Server Active Directory Administration Tools must use the newer version of Dsprop.dll to run properly. You cannot install the Windows .NET Server 2003 Administration Tools Pack (Adminpak.msi) on a computer that is running Windows XP Professional if you have not applied Service Pack 1 (SP1).
