I've just installed windows with my new HFSLIP'd disc...

Went to Microsoft Update to check I hadn't missed anything.

I was faced with this screen:

When I click "Start Now" this screen comes up:

It used to go straight onto scanning for updates?

When I click "continue" this happens:

I've looked up thee error code...

Information I found tell's me to ensure WUAUSERV and BITS are listed under the netsvcs key in registry location HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\SvcHost

I checked that, and they're both listed there ok.

I checked whether the services were actually running and neither were, I can't manually start the "Automatic Updates" service.

It comes up with error...

"Could not start the Automatic Updates service on Local Computer.

Error 1083: The executable program that this service is configured to run in does not implement the service."

Strange thing is that if I restart the machine... it all works fine.

I've attached my log file for you

HFSLIP.TXT

Thanks!

Also... KB920342 is showing up in Microsoft Update even though I have added it to the HF folder.

Not quite sure if I understand your problem, as I don't know if you rebooted after the installation process was done? Always reboot after the installation process is done before doing anything else, such as checking for updates.

I don't see the MSOOBE hotfix in your list. It's required when slipstreaming WMP11.

See on the HFSLIP site > Guidelines > Media Player 11 (WinXP).

Apologies guys, the errors were actually from things I've removed in nLite.

Thanks tomcat76, i'll add that one in.
