I'd suggest investigating the environment variables to see which one(s) are 
breaking things.  Also, double check your paths to make sure you don't have 
another AddInstrumentType directory floating around, since that might be 
confusing things.

The other thing would be to compare environment variables and directory 
contents with the machine that works.
