Now what?

Use it. If the MSI extension is now associated with the Windows Installer (as
it should be) then all you should now need to do is double click the msi file
to start the installation. If that doesn't work then reinstall the Microsoft
Installer.

KB 324638 (see below) includes instructions as to how to install v2.0 of the
Windows Installer including a link from which you can download a new copy.

MS KB 324638 - "OFFXP: "The MSIEXEC.EXE File Is Linked to a Missing Export
MSI.DLL:222" Error Message When You Try to Install, Update, or Remove a
Windows Installer-Based Program" (http://support.microsoft.com?kbid=324638).

Note that it is essential that you rename or delete all copies of msi.dll
before attempting to install the Windows Installer. The KB article explains
how to do this.
