Resolution

1. Continuum cannot be installed on XP HOME(XP Professional only)
2. Verify that the msmq service is started
3. Go to Add/Remove programs > Add/Remove Windows Components does not give the option of installing Message Queuing.
4. Go to a DOS Prompt and change your directory to C:\Program Files\Continuum\Install (cd \Program Files\Continuum\Install)
5. Run the batch file Runafterreboot.bat (This will reinstall the Continuum version of MSMQ.

Most recent versions of CyberStation RunAfterReboot.bat has been renamed InstallMSMQ.bat

Run the batch file and re-boot the machine then run Continuum

** In some cases Windows Add/Remove programs may not completely remove MSMQ and a utility like Revo Uninstaller may be helpful in getting a clean uninstall, so that a reinstall is successful.
