System Attendant and DSProxy.dll

I've seen this question asked a couple times but have yet to find a resolve to the situation. I was hoping that someone out there has a quick fix for me.

I just upgraded a server from Win2k to SBS2003 which as you know has the new Exchange 2003 server included. After the install completed, I began receiving the 'System Attendant cannot start' error and the 'The DSProxy.dll is required but cannot be loaded, error C00700CB.' I tried copying the .dll file off of the provided SBS CD with no luck.

I am at a complete loss on this one and have really exhausted every search resource I know at this time. I'm turning to the experts now and was hoping one of you might be able to get back to me right away with a quick fix. Kind of stressin over this one!

Thank you!

This was a fresh install of Exchange 2003. No other versions were installed/running at the time.

My colleague ended up calling Microsoft on this one. $250.0 bucks! Ouch. Turned out that during the upgrade, for whatever reason, several core .dll files failed to write. Spent 4 hours on the phone with these cats. Thanks for the assistance none-the-less.
