Hi all,

First thing before we being, I do not want to use any 3rd party software, as this is for work, so no nLite, HFSLIP, RyanVM stuff please - thanks

Have an XP Pro iso slipstreamed with SP3 that I am testing.

I am having a problem with KB947864 (Cumulative Update for IE7) and .NET 2.0. Have ensured that I have the latest avilable versions of these updates.

All other updates missing from SP3 install fine from svcpack.inf, it is just these two.

KB947864 also fails to install when I manually go to Microsoft Update.

I had to edit the svcpack.inf file to get it to work in SP3 in the first place.

Any help greatly appreciated.

My guess is that it is to do with the Major and Minor Version number, plus the build number, as they came from an SP2 SVCPACK.INF file. As I said, I had to add them in otherwise I just couldn't get SP3 to install updates using this method.

here is my svcpack.inf file...

you need a reboot between IE7 and kb947864

you need a reboot between IE7 and kb947864

Even I reboot between IE7 and KB947864, KB947864 still fail to install, unless re-installing IE7.

Many people have this probelm, is there any way to fix it?
