Have you tried killing all the unnecessary processes (like virus protection, etc.) Have you tried upgrading it from safe mode?

From the "net" .... does this mean from windowsupdate or from the FULL network version of SP3?

Hello everyone.
Forget about upgrading via "net" i have downloaded the .exe to the disk and i have killed all unnecessary process and even tryed from w2k "safe mode" with the some result.
Any ideas?

Corrupt download?
Have you tried extracting the file with winzip and running the update.exe manudally?
NTFS permissions on the drive not standard?

Corrupt? I don't think so. I have tryied already to installed manually, but the result is the same. This update was installed in more computers without problems.
The permitions are all ok.
