SUS Client

[Flip]

I am trying to install the SUS Client on an XP system that I downloaded from
the Microsoft site.When I double click on the file (WUAU22.msi) to run it, I
receive the following error:

Microsoft Windows Update Auto Update requires Windows 2000 SP2 or Windows
XP.

Then the installation stops. I am running WIndows XP SP1. Can anyone tell me
why this is happening.

Thank You

Right-click on the WUAU22.msi file and select "Install".

Windows XP SP1 already includes the AutoUpdate client.
You don't need to install it on that platform.
