501->509 Upgrade - 2 bugs

[Jacek Kolonko]

1. Functionality impared. File - Check for update does not detect the newer
version. I had to update manually.
2. Critical error(?). Execution prevention technology in Win XP SP2
prevented the post-reboot install process during upgrade - that is what the
dialog box was telling me. Probably these 2 lines in errors.log correspond
to this error:

On #2--are you talking about DEP? Did you get an event log message
corresponding to the dialog box?

Is this on an x64 system?

Yes, it was DEP resulting in:

One of these failures has been reported to MS (by DrWatson .

Is this on an x64 system?

No, Centrino notebook to be exact.

 

[Bill Sanderson]

Hmm - thanks very much. I have run that upgrade on at least one Centrino
laptop--a Dell 600m, without running into the issue. I have seen a report
from a user with an AMD 64 bit system with a similar issue--in this group.

The crash reports do go directly to the team working on Microsoft
antispyware--thanks for allowing that report to go through.
