KB930494 - Post installation prevents laptop from entering system standby

[mjoshea148]

Hi,

Have a Dell Inspiron 9300 running XP2, SP2 with all the latest updates
including those of 7/11/07. The hotfix for .NET 1.0.375 is now
apparently preventing my laptop from entering system standby based on
a system error message as the system attempts to standby (i.e., hotfix
is preventing system from entering standby).

Anyone else seen this? Any suggestions to fix?

I'm working on a relatively clean system build with little fluff.

Thanks,

Mike

Update: I restored prior to updates and all was fine. Reinstalled
all but this update and found that the other .NET hotfixes have the
same issue. Restored again - all was fine. Installed all critical
updates except the .NET hotfixes and all is fine.

Something re: .NET hotfixes is interfering w/system standby.

Did KB930494 come down via Automatic Updates ?

According to the information here:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/Bulletin/MS07-040.mspx

KB930494 is for .NET Framework 1.0 on either a Windows XP Tablet PC
Edition 2005 or a Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005

The correct .NET update for .NET 1.0 for XP SP2 is KB928367:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=91D7AFE4-069B-4CE8-976E-9A01345A8603

The correct .NET update for .NET 1.1 for XP SP2 is KB928366:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=281FB2CD-C715-4F05-A01F-0455D2D9EBFB

Are these the updates that were also installed ?

FWIW, on my Dell MCE 2005, installed KB928366 and then rebooted, then
installed KB930494 with no reboot requested.
Standby still working.

However, I'm beginning to think that something is amiss with the .NET
updates. Check out the Windows Update newsgroup :

YIKES !!!

Got these updates from automatic updates. They installed fine and I
was requested to reboot. System works fine - when I attempted to
manually put it into standby that's when I got the message - sounds
like I got off lucky so far. I do have Media Center 2005 on my 9300.

Ah, so it is MCE. FWIW, you are not alone when it comes to the Standby
issue. There appears to be a .NET update service that is running and
preventing 'some' Dell systems from successfully entering Standby.
A temporary workaround is to open the Services console and Stop the
Microsoft .NET Framework vX.X.XXXX Update service.
From what I've seen on the Windows Update newsgroup it's an indication
that the update is not installing properly due to the .NET Framework for
which the update is intended for being damaged or it did not install
properly.
