Guest Phillip Pi Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Hello! Is anyone else having problems installing this speific KB937287 update? I am unable to get it to stop showing up in my 64-bit Vista UE's Windows Update even though it was a success. All other today's updates were fine except one (KB937287 failed) and then rebooted, but now KB937287 keeps showing up even after successful installs. Someone else noticed this too: http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r19981754- ...

Guest AlanC Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Yep, I'm also using Vista Ultimate 64 and I'm seeing the same. After supposedly installing it 3 times I've simply hidden the update. Hardly satisfactory but gets rid of the annoyance.

Guest Chris Monaccio Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Phillip, I'm having the same problem. Initially the update installation failed. I rebooted, redownloaded it, and it said it was installed successfully. I wasn't paying attention and another update came up (the same one) and again it reports that it installed fine. It again prompted for the same update to be installed. I checked the list of installed updates and KB937287 is not present among the others. I also looked for the update via Mark's suggestion but it is again not present. No idea what the deal is. -Chris "Phillip Pi" wrote: > Hello! > > Is anyone else having problems installing this speific KB937287 update? > I am unable to get it to stop showing up in my 64-bit Vista UE's Windows > Update even though it was a success.

Guest fluffy Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Exactly the same problem here (Vista Ultimate 64-Bit). Hope there will be some solution for this problem. I do not want to install vista again because of a damaged update..

Guest Kat Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Add me to the list. Had 12 updates queued up, 11 succeeded but KB937287 failed. On reboot it queued for update, I applied it, it succeeded, then 2 minutes later it wanted to get applied again. Restart doesn't clear it.

Guest DanManchesterUK Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Same problem here, Vista Home Premium x64. Had 13 updates, 12 seemed to install fine and got the red error that KB937287 failed, so rebooted as required anyway and went back to download/install again but am experiencing the same as everyone else here. Oh well, no doubt there will be a patch for this patch soon! :-) "Kat" wrote: > Forgot to list: Vista Ultimate x64 here > > > "Kat" wrote: > > > Add me to the list. > > > > Had 12 updates queued up, 11 succeeded but KB937287 failed.

Guest xiowan Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Hello "Phillip Pi": I am getting the same update showing as not installed after two tries also. I am running Vista Ultimate 64 bit with an Intel Quadcore cpu and after the second installation attempt it said to restart and after okaying the re-start it shut down and the re-start failed leaving me a black screen. After waiting 30 minutes I gave up and shutdown the computer. When I re-started the pc, it went thru the normal please wait while it configures the update, then started up normally but is asking for me to install the same darn update for the third time. I don't think your problem is with your system it's probably a problem with the update itself and Microsoft will undoubtedly come up with a revised version in due time. I am definitely not going to install that update on my other Vista pc for a while though! xiowan.......in tucson "Phillip Pi" wrote: > Hello! > > Is anyone else having problems installing this speific KB937287 update? > I am unable to get it to stop showing up in my 64-bit Vista UE's Windows > Update even though it was a success.

Guest Kat Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Interesting... my machine is also an Intel quad core (Q6600). Coincidence? Although on this workstation the patch shows up as successfully applied, over and over and over.

Guest Harolds Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 This fixed it for me: 1. Download the update. To do this, follow these steps: a. Visit the Microsoft Download Web site: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads) b. In the Search for a download box, type the number of the Knowledge Base article that describes the update, and then click Go. c. Download the update, and then save it to the desktop. 2. Install the update. To do this, follow these steps: a. Double-click the downloaded file to install it. If you are prompted to restart the computer, do so. b. Visit the Windows Update or Microsoft Update Web site to verify whether the update is offered again. If you are offered the update again, continue to the next step. -- Harolds "Phillip Pi" wrote: > Hello! > > Is anyone else having problems installing this speific KB937287 update? > I am unable to get it to stop showing up in my 64-bit Vista UE's Windows > Update even though it was a success.

Guest Kat Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Yep, manual patching fixes it. Interesting that it appears as an 18k update in WU but a 9mb direct download.

Guest PA Bear [MS MVP] Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 [And they're off!] Tip: Temporarily disable real-time protection by your anti-virus and/or anti-spyware applications (e.g., CounterSpy, Spysweeper, Spybot, AVG Anti-Spyware) and/or any third-party firewall (e.g., ZA) before attempting to install the update(s). If you disable a third-party firewall, do NOT connect to the internet without having the Windows Firewall enabled! ================================== Start a free Windows Update support incident request: https://support.microsoft.com/oas/default.aspx?gprid=6527 Support for Windows Update: http://support.microsoft.com/gp/wusupport For home users, no-charge support is available by calling 1-866-PCSAFETY in the United States and in Canada or by contacting your local Microsoft subsidiary. There is no-charge for support calls that are associated with security updates. When you call, clearly state that your problem is related to a Security Update and cite the update's KB number (e.g., KB123456).

Guest xiowan Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Hi "Harolds": I took a look at the Microsoft Download Web site for KB937287and it is listed as 9.6 MBs. On my updates notification window KB937287 that didn't install correctly is showing as 18kb!!! I hestitate to download and install an update of 9.6 MBs if most of it is scrambled up somewhere in my operating system! Why the difference in the size of the download? Any idea? xiowan.........in tucson "Harolds" wrote: > This fixed it for me: > 1. Download the update. To do this, follow these steps: > a.

Guest Ken Ford Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 Same problem here with Vista Business 63-bit.

Guest AlexB Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 It seems to be a long thread. it is possible that someone has already suggested to look into this link. If not, then try it. It is MS TechNet. I did not read it carefully but the last posted said that "that did the trick." http://forums.microsoft.com/TechNet/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2747954&SiteID=17 "Phillip Pi" <phillip_pi@symantec.comSYMC> wrote in message news:ef9WxYbbIHA.5768@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... > Hello! > > Is anyone else having problems installing this speific KB937287 update?

Guest LarryC Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 OK, I'm having the same problem as all of you. xiowan directed me here for an answer but I see nothing. So I'm asking how to fix this, as I've said in a previous post I get a successful install but wants me to keep updating the same file, I've accidently installed the darn thing 4 times without knowing.

Guest LarryC Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 Lazy, I doubt it. Reading the same question over and over again and not knowing which thread is the real answer is tiresome. Just point out who has the correct answer would be most appreciated, if it's not too much to ask. You took the time to post so why not post the link or the user name.
