I've recently installed SQL Server 2000 Developer and Microsoft Analysis Services
on my Win XP Home computer. When I use Analysis Manager to browse any cube in
the FoodMart example database, I get the message: "Unable to browse the cube .... Unspecified error."

I also get the following intermittent problems.
- Analysis Manager hangs (e.g.when I've tried to delete a database or cube)
- when I open Analysis Manager and try to connect to the analysis server, I get the
following message: "Unable to connect to the registry on the server or you are not a
member of the OLAP Administrators group on the server."

I've tried re-installing Microsoft Analysis Services, but the problems remain.

Can anyone suggest a cause or solution please?

This is typically fixed by installing sp3 for analysis services, find it
here:
