Hi Maurice
You have to examine the 2 logs: Setupapi.log and scvpack.log They can maybe give you an idea, what is wrong. Search for following textstring "Install error" in scvpack.log and "Error 5" in setupapi.log. I think that you will find some "access denied" in the registry, if that is the case, you must give "Local Administrator" and "SYSTEM" Full Control to the keys. Hope you can use the information, good luck ! -- Kind Regards Henning S. Frandsen Systemengineer "Maurice Bishop" wrote in message ... Have around 30 Windows XP Pro machines to upgrade to SP2.
