Robert,
Sorry for not replying to the thread
Unfortunately I have recently been diagnosed with prostate cancer and
the
medication to control, is knocking me about a bit.
Fortunately with medication I am likely to die with it and not of it.
As to posting on the AumHa Forums I thought I might get a more
simplified
reply on how to resolve my problem. I could get anywhere with the info
you
sent
I eventually found a fix for KB951978 at the MS site and finally got
this
update installed but now I get this:
Some updates could not be installed
The following updates were not installed:
Security Update for Windows XP with Windows Media Format Runtime 9.5 and
11
(KB941569)
Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 7 for Windows XP
(KB950759)
Did you have to post the same quesion in AumHa Forums, chequer (and not
bother to reply to your thread)?
http://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?f=62&t=35092
If you can't figure out how to do Methods 1 and/or 2 in KB943144, see
http://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?f=62&t=33560
Or open a free support incident with MS PSS.

I went to this page:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943144 , as you
suggested, but I couldn't follow it. Maybe it's because I'm 80 or
just
stupid.
eg: Would I have to got to the MS update site, find these files &
install
them?
Would it be because I haven't go SP 3 installed?
All I want to know in laymen's term, is how I can resolve my issue.
Although I searched for an answer for my problem and looked at; How to
ask
a
question:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555375, I could find no
solution
Another issue,
When I received the notification email re "Can't install 2 updates" ,
I
clicked on Read and rate the response and was taken to this page:
http://www.microsoft.com:80/wn3/aspx/notifauth.aspx?url=http://www.microsoft.com/communities/
newsgroups/en-us/default.aspx%3fdg%3dmicrosoft.public.windowsxp.general%26mid%3d28823767-
4321-4aed-b25b-149657d757f4
Although 'Done' appeared in the lower taskbar the page was blank
Is there something wrong witht the link?
I went to the General discussion siteand logged in to find the reply
See:
Updates are not installed successfully from Windows Update, from
Microsoft
Update, or by using Automatic Updates after you repair a Windows XP
installation
