Nicholas,
I have tried your steps exactly and still get that same problem. Now I know
this machine I am trying to fix for a friend has never been updated since
she got it 2 years ago. I don't know if you need service pack 1 in before
this patch or not and I believe the microsoft article said either "Windows
XP release build or Windos XP SP1." When I tried doing the steps the 3rd
time I did it in SAFE mode and I noticed it said Windows XP Build 2600 at
the top maybe that can help you help me with this problem.
Thanks,
Chris
