Update keeps repeating

KB929338 - Update for Windows XP
KB920872 - Update for Windows XP

It tells me the files are download but not installed.... I installed it
repeatedly, and the "Review your history" shows that it has been.
What can I do?

|
| MSXML 4.0 SP2 Security Update (925672)
| MSXML 4.0 SP2 Security Update (KB927978)
|
| A quick check on my installation history shows that the updates has been

I am also facing the same issue where Windows XP Automatic update is
repeating the notice of wanting to install patch KB929338.

I have uninstall the patch and re-install the patch and reboot. This step
does not appear to solve the issue.

Any other suggestions?

Ottmar Freudenberger's method dealing with this one seems to work for most -

<quote>
Try downloading the update manually via DownloadCenter:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...b-dc23923d09e7

*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-KB929338-x86-ENU.exe" /o

The parameter "/o" (o like overwriteOEM) should do the trick for you.

HTH,
Freudi
