This tells of three (3) updates which need to be installed before Vista SP1
can be installed. I double-checked, just in case, and I keep receiving a
failed attempt do install Vista SP1.
My system has had it before (i reformated, thinking a fresh install would
fix most problems), SP1 that is. I have 64-bit install of Vista Ultimate. I
used to get multiple errors for Windows Media Player (WMP) and Internet
Explorer 7 (IE7), but somehow SP1 stopped those for about a month, then they
started again. Now my PC doesn't have those errors right now (just random
Iw3ep errors (cod4) when i shut it down and the pc says it shut down
unexpectedly) but i can't install vista service pack 1. I've tried 7 times,
cancelling 2x because it was frozen.
