| 179539 | 2003-10-01 07:52:00 | My OS is Win XP Pro I try to keep up with the critical updates but have had problems with some updates failing to install. What to do? |

| 179540 | 2003-10-01 08:12:00 | Is this a legitimate copy of xp pro? I only say that because the pirate version that is in popular use won't take a lot of updates, in particular you can't install sp1 on it (well you can but that's not for discussion here!). | pompeymike (4601) | ||

Only if you are using one of the banned keys, I don't think there are that many. As if you used the keygen then updates are no problem. |

Are you getting a message that XYZ update installation failed, or do you keep being presented with updates from WindowsUpdate that you know you have already downloaded and installed (and also appear listed in the Add/Remove list)? Is it any particular critical update? |

| 179545 | 2003-10-01 20:16:00 | I think some else was having a similar problem and if I remember correctly the cure was he/she had to be logged as a administrator before installing/downloading the patch. May be a good idea to search the forum | beama (111) | ||
