1189164 2011-03-24 23:28:00 I can't get SP1 to install on my Netbook which has Windows 7 Starter installed. I am trying to install it via MS download. Any way around this please.? Pato (2463)

1189168 2011-03-25 00:31:00 Mine wouldn't update manually after I downloaded all service packs so I let it do it through windows update, both the other computers here on Win7 I could do manually though gary67 (56)
1189169 2011-03-25 00:56:00 Had this exact problem on monday - damn thing wouldn't install on a customers PC either by updates, or manually :crying

Got it in the end though :thumbs:

Downlaod and run .netFramework cleanup tool (blogs.msdn.com) - when you run it, from the drop down box, select .net 4 ( no others) see attachment --Remove .netframework 4 - reboot when finished - then download the full package of .net4 full installer From Microsoft (www.microsoft.com) - run it and reinstall .netframwork - after a reboot, try the update again - should install and work.

I found out the long way - that if .net framework 4 is damaged in any way SP1 wont install as it requires it.
