XP2 install problem

Everytime I try to install the XP2 update it fails about 40% through the
process. It states that if fails because "a component's file does not match
the verification information present in the component manifest." When I
check my update history there is a code in the window of 0x800736CC.

I have tried this several times with the same results each and every time.

Any suggestions on how to resolve this?

Thanks.

Yup, the same thing is happening to me right now.
What do I do?

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Where did you get the update from? Looks as if it is corrupted somehow?

BTW when XPsp2 first came out it was often suggested not to download it
from WU but to get the whole thing from a normal download site (if feasible
due to its size) or request it to be mailed to you on a CD.

I am also getting this error. I will try and find service pack 2 download
from another reputable site and see if that works.

Don't ever download these from anywhere but the source, i.e. Microsoft
itself.

General Information here:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/sp2/default.mspx

Order the CD:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/d...s/default.mspx

Download directly from Microsoft:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

(Disregard the IT Professionals bit, it's the same download as through
Windows Update but you can save it for later installation).

Well I don't care where I get SP2 from, microsoft is fine but does anyone
know how to solve this 0x800736CC error? It's bloody annoying my printer wont
work without SP2 and I've got to release an album tomorow. All the google
results lead no where and if I have to sit through another download before
the error box appears I swear I'm gonna take my own life.

Thanks

Try a search? Apparently it is a rarely seen code...
So try converting the lower half of that code to decimal
and searching with that:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...000-15999_.asp

(MSN search for
14028 error codes site:microsoft.com
)

<quote>
ERROR_SXS_FILE_HASH_MISMATCH 14028
A component's file does not match the verification information
present in the component manifest.

This suggests that you have some file corruption
but with no other details, e.g. which file, what version
or where it is located it would be anybody's guess
what to do next.


Try looking for more context for your code in the log.
Also, if this is the last code reported by a specific transaction
but not the first it is quite common that the first is more significant.

Another approach would be to rerun the install while using
FileMon and RegMon (from SysInternals)
to supplement the information given by the log. Etc.


Good luck

Robert
