Can you open an old version of the IPT?
You say serious error on assembly, can you open the assembly with out IV
locking or crashing?
If you can get an old version open then save it as current version and try
the assembly again.
You could try moving the IPT off path and if at any time the assembly can be
opened successfully save it and then reinsert the IPT after backing up all
your files to do with the assembly.
