You mean I should run at cmd "msdtc -resetlog" ?

Nickperf thank you, I just tried your solution and it worked perfectly.
I only had to go through:
--------------------------
Start |Run | Cmd
Type msdtc -uninstall
(registry keys were ok)
At the command prompt, type the following command:
msdtc -install
Check Event Viewer for the following message:
Event Source: MSDTC
Event ID: 4104
Description: The Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator service was successfully installed.
Restore the Startup Type of the services to their original values, and then restart your computer.
--------------------------
The rest of the steps were not necessary.
Thank you very much! :)
