Try something along these lines:

Download the updates from the links below and save them to disk, DO NOT
run them :

Security Update for Windows Media Player Plug-in (KB911564
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...A-BB8570A7321C

Update for Windows XP (KB910437)
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

Close Internet Explorer ( or whichever browser is open ) and close ALL
other programs and applications.
Now try to install the updates.

hi, In the end I had so many problems with XP64 including software not being
freely available, games no longer working properly along with the crashing
and updates not fully working, i formatted it and went back to xp pro
(32bit). I have got to say it has/was been the most frustrating period of my
computer experiece using that system. I personally will not be joing the
vista system until the rest of teh world (public) all agree its worth it.
XP 64 seems to have been designed, released and never supported by either MS
or the software/hardware managers.
Thanks for responding
