Hi,

Using Win 2000 MS Update the web page (http://update.microsoft.com) said
there were 2 High-priority updates for Microsoft Windows 2000:

Security Update for Windows 2000 (KB913580)
Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool - May 2006 (KB890830)

When I installed them they downloaded fine but did not install. I rebooted
and tried again, same problem. So I tried the 'Security Update for Windows
2000 (KB913580)' on it's own since that's the important one, again it
failed to install. BTW the error message it gives is:

"Problem: A problem on your computer is preventing updates from being
downloaded or installed
Solution: To fix the problem, try installing the updates again. If that
doesn't work, use the Troubleshooter to try solve the problem.

Microsoft Windows 2000
Security Update for Windows 2000 (KB913580)
Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool - May 2006 (KB890830)"

The troubleshooter was no help.

Please advise me.

Thanks,

MS

Hi,
I have the same problem with KB819696 - the only difference
is, that there is no error message. I installed it already
a dozen of times - without effort.

Thanks, HDNowak
