Hi Satoribomb, I'm glad you got everything working again.
Part of the work that I've been doing to move MoI v3 off of mshtml.dll also involves moving over to WebKit's JavaScript engine instead of the Windows jscript.dll . That will make MoI more self contained and more resilient to mild system or registry corruption.
My HP Tablet PC (Win 7 Pro) booted into self-repair mode after I was looking at boot repair options. I'm not sure how it happened, but it looks like HP's extensive suite of Bloatware worked to save the day. Go figure!
