"Setup could not verify the integrity of the file
Update.inf. Make sure the cryptographic
service is running on this computer."

Anybody know what to do?

Thanks in advance, Bob

Do just what the error indicates..... make sure your cryptographic
service is running. Do this:

Click START, click RUN, type in "services.msc" (no quotes). When the
services dialog opens, scroll on down to Cryptographic Services.
Look to the right and make sure it's started. Also, the startup
parameter should be automatic.

If it hasn't started or the startup parameter is not automatic,
highlight Cryptographic Services, right click, select properties, and
then change the startup type to automatic. Reboot and verify that it
has started. Now you should be able to run the install for SP-1.
