| Regarding Windows Service Pack Windows Vista Update KB936330
| This update has been trying to install on my computer for weeks (about ten
| times) It appears to install, goes through the three installations and then
| at the very end (after 1 - 2 hours) says it didn't install properly and
| reverts all the changes. I accept the licensing term and have plenty of
| memory. I have Windows Vista Home Premium on a Gateway GT5414E and running a
| McAfee Security Suite package. Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks in
| advance.
