You are trying to bind "xmlns" prefix to "xsi" namespace URI, that's wrong and
after all forbidden, because "xmlns" is special reserved attribute name and
cannot be bound to any namespace URI other than "http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/".

C# code:
writer.WriteAttributeString("xmlns", "xsi", null,
"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance");
writer.WriteAttributeString("xsi", "noNamespaceSchemaLocation",
"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance",
"d:/fsaATLAS/XML/SASStudent.xsd");
