While attempting to install the upgrade the following
message appeared: MS error 556FF58h Contact Microsft

Reviewing the Web site proved to be as daunting as
attempting to run the update.

Any help which would bring about some positive results
would be appreciated.
IE: How best to contact MS to resolve?

What does the error message mean?

In my first attempt I took care to close all of the
open programs possible, excluding Explorer & Systray
and a few others.

In the 2nd attempt I disregarded closing programs
since nothing was mentioned about this in the accompanying
literature or in the early portiong of the upgrade process.

Any info which will help the get the process underway will
be appreciated.

Thanks
