I cannot install the service pack 1 and I have done
everything suggested in microsoft knowlege base article
326815, several times in safe mode and in normal mode. I
get the same message every time.

"setup could not verify the integrity of the file
Update.inf. Make sure the cryptographic service is
running on this computer.
I have, both from windows and from command prompt.

I am getting ready to pitch it out the window, any help
would be very much appreciated
 
Darren;

Jupiter:

I have tried all suggestions from Microsoft - renaming the
catroot2 folder, deleting the catroot2 folder, making sure
the cryptography service was started, etc. I still can't
get the patch installed on one machine. I repaired many
XP Home machines yesterday. Only one is giving me this
problem. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks. Anne
 
Anne;
Start the Administrative Tools utility in Control Panel.
Double-click Services.
Right-click Cryptographic Services, and then click Properties.
Click Automatic for Startup type, and then click Start.

If Cryptographic Services is already set to Automatic, disable it,
reboot, then go back and set to Automatic.
Reboot
Otherwise:
Check for missing/damaged System files:
Start/Run
Type "cmd" ENTER
Type "sfc /scannow" ENTER
Have Windows XP CD nearby.
Reboot when completed.
