My brother cannot install the above on his HP slimline. All updates are
current. Here is the timeline that he provided for me:
Service Pack 3 Setup Error (the heading in the box)
Access is Denied (after you click on this you get the message below)
Service Pack 3 Installation Did Not Complete (after you click on this you
get the message below)
Select 'Ok" to undo the changes that have been made
Then you restart the computer and you are back to SP2 and all seems to work
fine.
Any ideas from the group or should I just have him Google for help? Thanks,
Steve T.
