KB920872

[Guest]

The last three times I've turned on my computer an Automatic Update is
waiting for me. Each time I've clicked on the update to download it. All
three times it was the same thing; KB920872.

How do I get this to stop. I have set my updates to come only on Fridays at
5:00 p.m. - but the updates seem to be coming everyday all of a sudden.

Any suggestions?

Rick555,

I've copied below a post by Eric Brodish [MSFT] where he gives the solution
and reason for this problem.

Hi,



The most common cause for this is that you have an OEM PC on which the PC
manufacturer imaged the kmixer.sys, wdmaud.sys and splitter.sys drivers as
unsigned. Update.exe will treat these drivers as OEM drivers and not
overwrite them. Please try the following:





1. Download the update from
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...93a7-6a6c6a87be7f&displaylang=en&Hash=7LFJN64
and save to their C: drive

2. Click on the Start/Run

3. Type C:\WindowsXP-KB920872-x86-ENU.exe /o and click OK



Thank you


Eric

Hi Rick

I wonder if you are allowing sufficient time for the download to take place
in full... If you don't - and let's face it some of them take for ever, your
computer will pick up where it left off each time you go on-line... I can't
exactly which was the last download I received but it certainly went on - and
on....

This might explain why its trying to download outside of the times you have
stipulated.

good luck!

I have had to turn off Automatic Update. KB920872 shows up as being
installed in my Windows Update for my computer. It shows up as being
installed on the Update Websites as being installed once on September 13,
twice on September 14, and September 15 and once on September 21, plus when
try to click notify support by e-mail, it will not come up. What to do?
