I have set up an XP virtual PC. I managed to download and install some
update, including service pack 3. I have tried to update media player to
version 11 but the install fails, no error code given or reason for failure.
I have just installed Office 2007 and downloaded all the updates, non will
install, just git a failue message but no error codes. Any ideas?

Regards

I have a definite feeling that this is probably caused by the video card
the VM is emulating. It is only a 4Mb S3 Trio. I am surprised that ANY
media player runs on the card.

Found out what my problem was from the knowledge base; somthing to do with XP
service packs 2 and 3 and microsoft updates. Anyway the problem was some
files had failed to register correctly. I re registered them and all is now
fine. Put the following in a text file and rename as reg.bat and run the file
:
REGSVR32 WUPS2.DLL /S
REGSVR32 WUPS.DLL /S
REGSVR32 WUAUENG.DLL /S
REGSVR32 WUAPI.DLL /S
REGSVR32 MUCLTUI.DLL /S
REGSVR32 WUCLTUI.DLL /S
REGSVR32 WUWEB.DLL /S
REGSVR32 MUWEB.DLL /S
REGSVR32 QMGR.DLL /S
REGSVR32 QMGRPRXY.DLL /S
