DST Update

I tried to update my Daylight Savings Time on my desktop and received
and error message...

KB931836 System Error

Update can not be installed as a newer or same time zone update has
already been installed on the system.

And my system clock will not reset to the new Daylight Saving Time and
remains behind an hour and I can not even manually adjust the time to
correct the time difference like I have done on my other clocks around
the house.

The file from microsoft.com "WindowsXP-KB931836-X86-ENU" worked just
fine on my laptop and I can not get it to work on the desktop, why?

I sent feedback to Microsoft hoping they might be able to assist, but
if not...

Any help or suggestions will be appreciated.

Windows version of the machine in question?

I am running WindowsXP Home Edition SP-2 on both machines. The laptop
didn't have any problems with it...

To keep track of things, it helps immensely if you include all of previous
message(s) in your replies to the newsgroup. Thank you.

Is "Update for Windows XP (KB931836)" found in (toward the very bottom of)
Add/Remove Programs (the Show Updates box must be checked)? If so, what is
its Install date?
