I concur the need of net4.0 standaalone installation before sp1 install: had excatly the same problem, sp1 did not install to pc, no reason was given... Installed net4.0 and voila, sp1 installed smoothly PS: also the genuine check did not work prior to .net4.0 installation, after that no problem

Target: "look for above posts", duh

In short /n this switch displayes the "xp look-a-like" roundcornered colorful side-bar, instead of folders bar. If you don't have the xp this switch is pointless, I think . /e displayes folder bar /e, D:\foldername displayes upper level folders and opens to the specified folder /root, D:\foldername doesn't show upper level folders, opens to the specified folder
