Do you have any substituted drive letters asssigned? (If you aren't sure, open
a command window, type "subst" and press ENTER.)

Are there any removable media mounted on your machine?

Same problem here

This update will not install on my PC either. (Windows XP SP3)

Thanks, Terri

I have been having the same problem. I am running Vista Ultimate on a
Thinkpad T60p. I have tried to install the Silverlight 1.0 update at least
20 times. The install always fails with an Error 64C.

Dearly beloved in this fiasco. (zulu, 30xa, terri, walt)
Hoping that you will come back to this exchange for my solution. The experts
were of no help and very burocratic
Uninstall Silverlight, preferably with the Windows Install clean up.
Reboot.
Download the SL1 and expand into a directory in C:\temp\SL1 (I did not tried
the 2.0 because it beta)
Using the install.exe will give you another failure. Insted use the msi file
directly installing it.
It worked for me.
Cheers

One more thing, for peace of mind.
If after compleating install you attempt to install KB959305, it will tell
you that it is not needed.

Once completed, you can try to reinstall the update patch. Eventually you
will get a message of NO install, because it is NO NEDDED.
It worked for me.
