Hi,
Two days ago, I went to MS Windows Update and 10 out of 11 updates were
successfully installed.
During the installation, a pop-up window opened that stated:

END POP-UP WINDOW
The only option available with the above pop-up window was to click on the
OK button, and it closed. Unfortunately, as I discovered, this pop-up window
was associated with the 11th update that did not install. This 11th, did not
install and it is defined as:
Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1 Security Update for Windows
2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, and Windows
Server 2008 R2 (KB953297)
When I check my HISTORY, this update was noted and the ? symbol states:
Installation Failure
Error Code: 0x667
Try to install the update again, or request help from one of the following
resources.

following member's comment:
Had same problem.... Solution--Uninstall .Net Framework 1.1 from
add/remove programs.This automatically removes an earlier hotfix which i
think is causing the problem.Restart computer and go to windows update as
normal and check for updates.If all is well you will reinstall .Net Framework
1.1 and the problem update KB953297 successfully. This worked on both my
laptops but for some reason i had to try 2 times before the update KB953297
successfully installed on one of mylaptops. Good luck.. Scott
I tried Scott's suggestion, and after removing 1.1, I rebooted. Then I went
to MS Windows Update, it said I needed to install 1.1 - so I did. Then
rebooted.
Again, back to MS Windows Update, this time it said I needed to install 1.1
SP1 (not to be confused with KB953297) - so I did. Then rebooted.
Once again, back to MS Windows Update, this time it said I needed to install
KB953297 - so I tried. The same thing happened as described above, during
the installation, a pop-up window opened that stated... You know the rest.
I also tried going to the MS Download website, where I downloaded KB953297,
as the file: NDP1.1sp1-KB953297-X86.exe
Once again, the same thing happened as described hereinabove, during the
installation, a pop-up window opened that stated... Once again, you know the
rest.
I am running Windows XP SP2 and do not plan on updating to SP3 anytime soon.
I have Googled this issue and there are TONS of people with the same
problem, and I have not read a solution that works for most of them - of
course, Scott's solution appears to work for some - and I am one of those
people that cannot find a solution.
Any thoughts?
Are their any MS-MVPs out there with a solution?
Thanks in advance,
Anna
