the windows update icon disappears but a couple minutes later it reappears
and wants me to redownload it all over again. This keeps happening.

I have been experiencing the same thing for the past 2 days. Hopefully MS
will fix it shortly.

Exact same problem three days running.........
Must be more than just a minor problem. Can't anyone help with this?
All indications in Update History indicate successful update, however, task
bar notification keeps reappearing.

Windows 7 - Update for Windows XP (KB920872)
Asked By Radric
16-Sep-06 01:26 AM
After receiving my log file Eric suggested:
The most common cause for this is that you have an OEM PC on which the PC
manufacturer imaged the kmixer.sys, wdmaud.sys and splitter.sys drivers as
unsigned. Update.exe will treat these drivers as OEM drivers and not
overwrite them. Please try the following:
1. Download the update from
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=8c2e44a5-6a28-4888-93a7-6a6c6a87be7f&displaylang=en&Hash=7LFJN64 and save to their C: drive
2. Click on the Start/Run
3. Type C:\WindowsXP-KB920872-x86-ENU.exe /o and click OK
Thank you
Eric
I did as Eric recommended and the recurring update has stopped.
Thanks, Eric
Error 898461 and spmsg.dll error Windows 7 I have the same probs as many others but being just a novice I don't understand many of the responses. My system returns the following error message when I try to download KB898461.: destination directory. " I have tried skipping and continuing the download but this collapsed my system and it is only through luck and patience that it is now up and running further updates. Is it worth running chkdsk as suggested in one of these forums?

update from control panel never displays anything - Error 0x80244 Windows 7 vista home prem sp1, on new laptop- came with it. if i click on windows update in control panel, nothing ever displays but the spinning circle (i.e. hourglass replacement). looking that stores the updates which have taken place, as I can't bring up the windows update control panel screen. if I could see the updates, maybe i could back them out the only option going back through the log. i.e. how do you uninstall an update when the update control panel won't display? thanks. 2008-05-27 18:43:01:803 1228 42c
install important updates" at Windows XP SP3 shutdown - huh? Windows 7 I have XP SP3. When I went to shut my computer down tonight, instead of the normal standby, turn off, restart popup, I had that, but there was a Windows security shield superimposed on the turn off icon, and a message at the bottom of here to turn off without installing updates." This scares and weirds me out. I have Windows set up to download updates automatically, but only install after I review / approve the updates. But the little yellow Updates shield isn't showing in my system tray area. I went to Windows update and the last activity was September 9, when these updates were installed: * Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool - September 2008 (KB890830) * Windows XP Security Update for Windows XP (KB938464
