I've tried that solution with no luck. It's for Windows XP Pro, though. It installs okay. But if I run the Windows Update again it says there is still 1 critical update and service pack to install. But in my installation history it shows that the critical update and service pack has been installed successfully. IP: Logged |

I don't know if this will fix your problem, but look at it and try it see if it works. "Problem Description: 1. Click on Start, Run and type "regedit" (w/o the quotes). The Registry Editor will open. 2. Navigate to the following key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion 3. Look for a key called VersionNumber and check the Data value for this key. Depending on the version of Windows you are running, the key should read the following: If running Windows 98 Original, the data value should be 4.10.1998. If your current VersionNumber Data value does not match the Data value that it should be for your operating system, then you need to manually change the Data value by double-clicking on the Data value and typing in the correct value. 4. After making the change, connect to the Windows Update site and see if you still get the No updates available message. " ------------------ IP: Logged |

Looks like a good procedure. But I'm looking for something a little less complicated. All I want to do is for the update to say that it has been downloaded and installed. ------------------ IP: Logged |

Hi all. I was finally able to download Windows XP Pro SP1 and update Windows. But when I go to the Windows Update site it still says I need to download Windows XP Pro SP1 and update Windows. But in the installation history it is listed as being installed correctly. Any ideas? ------------------ IP: Logged |
