Re: can't verify integrity of update.inf



thank you

what causes "The RPC server is unavailable." how to fix that?
the service for Remote Procedure Call (RPC) is started and is automatic

I even make sure Remote Procedure Call (RPC) Locator is started.
this does not require net bios helper, or does it?

Secured website surfing is no longer a problem. neither is running signed

catalog files, re-registering DLLs to get rid of that. Re article on

windows catalog. reboot

problems I am still facing: are
- hung update at the installation status of "Downloading Security Update
for Windows XP (KB911927) (update 1 of 4)... "
and preparing for download progress bar of about somewhere between 1/5
to
1/4 complete.
.
- integrity of update.inf can't be verified when I tried to bypass the
security update and install directly the corresponding KBs.downloaded
manually/ I tried an article's manual extraction and execution method
but I still get the same error message
Hi,

See if running the batch file fixdb.bat that I have created helps:

Look for fixdb.bat under "Error 0x800710D9 Unable to read from
or write to the database". Download and run it.
