Guest 393gorse Posted August 30, 2007 Posted August 30, 2007 I have a PC which had a problem downloading service pack to - it failed to start after loading sp2 - so reformatted, lost all work. Up until now, I have delayed installing SP2 - Purchased the disk. In running the sp2 set up, I get an error: Service Pack 2 Set Up Error A component's file does not match the varification information present in the component manifest. The only option is OK and this activates the removal wizzard. Everything on the PC is genuine - what does this refer to? and what action may I take to rectify the problem? Have I installed Microsoft updates in the worng order by suppressing SP2 or am I missing a critical download. Any thoughts?

Try downloading SP2 for Windows XP manually (again) and execute it while *no* applications are running in the background: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=049c9dbe-3b8e-4f30-8245-9e368d3cdb5a Bye, Freudi

Fine - and don't forget to directly move to the Windows Update site to let the Important/Critical Updates load and install. YW, Freudi
