Same thing on the WU site
The log shows error 0x8007f0f1
I did a check in google for this error, some
sites said to uninstall SP3 to go back to SP2
(Well obviously I cant because SP3 was slipstreamed).
And another site said to reinstall IE 7 (which I did).
This fixed it and the updated installed fine.
So, somehow, I dont think slipstreaming IE7 with SP3
is a good idea. It can screw things up
I may have to make another slipstreamed cd, with SP3 and WMP11.
And install IE 7 and the IE updates AFTER
I install XP next time
Thanx for the info PA
I havent tried the WU site yet I'll try that now
But it wont install from the shield as in my previous post, or if I
download it manually then install it.
Nope I have never installed (or used) any beta version of SP3, on
either
of these, only the final version of SP3.(which was slipstreamed).
SP3 has only been installed on both of these, since Jan this year
Avast is installed but I disabled it before installing ALL of the
updates
that came out today
I have no firewall besides XP's firewall
Defender isnt installed either.
Sorry for the crosspost. I posted it in this NG, but then realised
the WU
NG may have been the right NG to post it in.
[X-post to WU newsgroup, since you MULTIPOSTED there, too!]
Post the complete error message(s) you get when attempting the
install.
Does it install successfully via Windows Update?
How and when was SP3 installed on the problem machine? Was a beta
build
of
SP3 ever installed on that machine?
What anti-virus application or security suite is installed? What
anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)? What third-party
firewall
(if any)? Were any of these applications running when SP3 was
installed?
...when you attempted to install KB950759?

Wont install on the other PC here, it says the files in
the package arent compatible.
BUT, it installs fine on this PC.
Both have the same version of IE and XP (SP3)
So, any ideas on WHY it wont install?
It still appears in the shield on the taskbar, but it still wont
install.
Whether I download the file manually, or download the update from
within
the
shield.
Any info appreciated
Thanx
