Installed VS 6 on xp pro x64.
After install, expanding the DCOM folder in dcomcnfg.exe generates an error
closing the MMC.
Event Log entires:

The application, C:\WINDOWS\system32\mmc.exe, generated an application error

Hi,
According to the error, the problem appears to be VS 6 overwrites some
system dlls with 32-bit version: MFC42u.dll , MFC40u.dll,etc. You should
restore these dlls back from Windows CD or system backup. Or perform a
repair installation of OS.
Another way is install a trial version of VS2005 64-bit which will also
overwrite the dlls to correct version. Please note VS 6 isn't designed to
be compatible with 64-bit system even in the lastest service pack. VS 2005
is the only supported IDE on 64-bit OS.

Hope the info helps. Please let me know if you have further question. Have
a nice day.
