(1) Are you running a non-English version of Windows XP *and* (2) are you
using a Unidrv-based printer *and* (3) is Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0
installed *and* (4) are you seeing English text in the print dialog box when
you print something? If you cannot answer Yes to all four (4) conditions,
you don't need to install 934238.

I had the exact same problem however it just resolved itself today. I think
that this solution needs reviewed to potentially stamp out a bug in this
update. So, I would appreciate it if you could read closely.

I am using XP Pro, English version... had that patch offered on Windows
Update and Automatic Updates. It failed with that previously mentioned code.
I wanted to see what I could do to make it work or "go away" without
specifically removing it.

I have all versions of the .Net Framework installed. I installed most but
not all optional patches for this machine. Today I installed a few more
optional patches.

Windows XP Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 Service Pack 1 (KB929300) --
Successful Install
Windows XP Root Certificates Update -- Successful Install
Windows XP Update for .NET Framework 3.0: x86 (KB932471) -- Successful
Install
Windows XP Update for Windows XP (KB934238) -- Falied Install

I did a scan for Windows Updates again (Custom scan) so that I could retry
to install KB934238. This time that update didn't show. I believe that the
update was showing because it was required that I install one of the 3 items
that I installed above. Without one of those installed, Windows Update was
pretty darn sure that I needed 934238.

As a sidenote, I have seen a couple of computers not being able to install
an automatic update and that update was 934238. So, I think this problem is
kinda widespread... and thus might relate to one of the three patches above.

On my machine, I have not installed the following patches. The rest I have
installed for my version of Windows.
Microsoft Base Smart Card Cryptographic Service Provider Package: x86
(KB909520)
Driver update for RADEON 9600 SERIES - Secondary
Driver update for NVIDIA(R) nForce(TM) Audio
Silicon Image - Other Hardware - Silicon Image SiI 0680 ATA-133 Medley Raid
Controller

Hope this post helps!
