kernel32 relocated by gdi32, windows update issue.

Using Windows Professional. No other system information will be required for
this.

I installed Windows Pro SP2. Things run correctly. I go to update enmass.
Updates install correctly, restarts and the following appears instead of my
login screen..

Summerized.
----
STOP: c0000269 {Illegal System DLL Relocation}
kernel32.dll relocated, will not work properly
GDI32.dll occupied address range reserved for Windows System Dlls.
----

I know that this is a culpit of an offending update, and this issue has been
reported before. I have consulted a support article for the replacement of
kernel32, to no avail. What update is causing this error, because I will
uninstall that update. Thanks.

I am also having the same problem, but with XP Home Edition SP2. The PC will
not boot to safe mode and "last known good" configuration doesn't work,
either. This is a friend's computer, and he can't find (or doesn't have) the
original XP Home. Before downloading the updates the machine was operating
perfectly, and now it won't boot at all.

I've found the best solution is to recover with the xp disk. Unfortunely,
that requires the disk that doesn't exist. Other then that, I tried swapping
files in and out and I had windows working with a failed explorer. Once
again, that requied the disk. By looking at the updates, I narrowed it down
to two culpits. I don't remember the exact names, but there were around last
numbers 538 and 555, something to do with kernel. Uninstalling those updates
got the failed explorer interface, but nonetheless, enough to backup with.

Thanks, Bryan. I'll try that...but I'm really hoping I can find someone with
an XP Home CD I can use to boot the thing. Appreciate the insight!!
