Automatic Updates

[Alex McFarlane]

Hi guys,

Am re-building my daughter's laptop with a new enormous hard disc.
Reloaded XP from the back-up disc that came with the laptop. All OK
I am now getting a recurrent update message:

The following updates were not installed:
Microsoft Windows Installer 3.1

Any solutions?

Your help, as ever, extremely appreciated.

Regards

Any solutions?

Why don't you simply install that update.
"Windows Installer 3.1 Redistributable (v2)"
