Do you remember the KB929338 install looping threads? The very same
applies to KB931784 too - like *all* kernel updates BTW.
So, what to do to get it fixed?
Try downloading the update manually via DownloadCenter:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...d-a9f1eae19b51
*Save* the file to a folder your harddisk (let me call it "C:\Downloads"),
do *not* execute it from within your browser.
Afterwards type the following under "Run" in the Start menu:
"C:\Downloads\WindowsXP-KB9231784-x86-ENU.exe" /o
The parameter "/o" (o like overwriteOEM) should do the trick for you.
Note the blank between the last quote sign and the parameter /o!
Bye,
