Windows update issues...

[DysfunktinaL]

So, in a shop of 50 comps, so far 1 has updated correctly.

Issues started with Windows Audio service stopping randomly, and unable to brows the computers remotely. Did an update on 1, and it did 20-21 updates, restarted, and then did the last update (Security fix for .Net Framework 2.0). Now trying to update 4 more comps, it does 1-20, and then reboot, and now will not install update 21, the .net framework one.

Any suggestions?

probably, don't bother installing the .net framework and making it hidden so that it doesn't bother you? the .net framework is pretty much useless unless you have a program such as nLite that depends on it. but if the only .net program that you use is nLite, then you can use the alternate runtimes and not bother with the .net framework.

btw: is it the .net framework 1.1 or 2.0?

.net 2.0

SmartLaunch, our client login system requires the framework, so it's a must have. We figured out a workaround for it though. We have to uninstall first, then re-install, and then update. It is a pain in the a**, but it gets the job done.
