It attempts to finish about 102 updates. It finishes about 3 seconds later, because all of the updates fail to install. That's about all the information I can give you. Is there some way to fix this or to find a manual update that doesn't require some retarded microsoft validation that doesn't work? --------------------

I'm not much of an expert but that seems like it would work. If that doesn't work try contacting someone who's better at this kind of stuff. -------------------- Allusion - [\|\|--------] *25% complete* GridLocked - [\|\|\|\|------] *45% complete* my blog
