[dba-Tech] WinXP update problem

Lembit

I think you need the Windows install cd, rather than the SP3 cd (unless you've gone and slipstreamed yourself an install cd with SP3 on it).

Try that and see how it goes.

Subject: [dba-Tech] WinXP update problem

after running an update on WinXP pro SP3 I get following message:

Some files have been modified and need to be replaced. please insert the Windows XP SP3 CD.

When I do that, it tells me thats the wrong CD.

Of course it is the correct one. it is the one from which I installed SP3.
Still, I burned a new CD from the ISO file which I still have.
no success. still 'the wrong CD'

This happened on two PCs
I restored system files to a day before and the PCs are working, but I have of course turned AutoUpdate off.

Any idea?

thanks for any proposals what to do.

Lembit
