Service Pack 4 Problem

[Mradul Sahney]

Hi
I am facing a Strange Problem.
I am trying to install Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 on my
Windows 2000 Server Machine (No Service Pack Installed)
but When i click on W2ksp4_EN.exe, It gives me 'The File
is Corrupt' Error.
While The same file is successfully working on Other
Windows 2000 machines.

I have also tried to reinstall Windows 2000 and also tried
with another Copy of Service Pack 4, but the Problem
remains same.

Please, Reply me as soon as possible, since lots of
Softwares i can't Install in the absence of Windows 2000
Service Pack 4 ont he same machine.


Thanks and Regards
Mradul Sahney

Hi,

Check digital certificate of the package? All service packs and patches that
come from Microsoft are digitally signed. If only one bit is modified or
lost in the transfer, whole package is invalid and won't install.

To check, right click on .exe file and click on Properties. Click on Digital
Signatures tab and select signature. Click on Details tab. It will take
about 30 seconds to check if the signature is valid.

Is it valid?

You can download SP4 from Microsoft.
