Didn't really see a question, but I'll go ahead and ask one:

32bit or 64bit Vista? If 64bit, try using instead: v6v4tnnel interface=IP6tunnel

32-bit Vista, but I've tried all those syntax alternatives. Might one of the .sys driver files be corrupt or missing?

Unknown, never seen that error creating a tunnel under it. Maybe uninstall IPv6, reboot, re-isntall, reboot, retry, the windows way! :D

My term for that is "nudging Windows".  Term applies also when you do something like, say, open some prop sheet up, change some value to something else, hit OK or APPLY, change it back to what it's supposed to be, and magically things start working 'cause the software behind the prop sheet went and re-did a bunch of stuff in the background.  Just a little "nudge".  :)

OK, I've upgraded to Windows 7 and it worked at once. So we'll never know what happened.
