Had to put in a new drive and reload winxp-pro with sp2. For some reason
when updates come up automatically they can't be installed. The first update
is windows gen advantage validation tool. It ran okay before. Anyone know
the reason for the failure and how to fix it?
 
Went to MS website and ran validation from there okay. Then tried to update
again which failed again. HELP
 
Ignore title - Updates are not installed successfully from Windows Update, from Microsoft
Update, or by using Automatic Updates after you repair a Windows XP installation

Yes, your suggestion worked. Thank you.

Wonder why this article did not come up when I searched MS.
