did you try talking to Dataone customer care? what did they say?

scan the system with antivirus , spybot & adaware .
there can be a trojan / spyware affecting your system ...

and in your add/remove programs (classic view) check if
you have this security update : Windows XP (KB823980)
if you donot have this , you may have to install it ( Link )

downloading the security update hope the problem resolvesi have already service pack 2 the security update cannot be installed windows is reporting the above

Thats ur windows problem not datone or modem.Check ur PC for virus,if windows doesn't restart try to start Gneric Host Process(svchost.exe) manually from services or using run command.

get autopatcher and try installing that for all the latest fixes... if nothing else works. try to get the installer cd for xp from some other source. and try to get one with sp2 built in.

Was that a Windows Authentication error or are you just unable to install the update?

Run C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe,Check in ur Task Manager is SVCHOST/SYSTEM running.Now Run services.msc and Check for Services with Statup type Automatic and Status blank.Manually start all these services and then try to connect.

Windows is your problem. Get Win XP from another source & install ,preferably WITHOUT sp2 slipstreamed [since you are having problem with it]. You'll do fine.

I would advice the same, change ur windows source cd. Format and reinstall from a new source CD and it should work fine!

Hey, Just for keeps.... I think u should download all latest patches from Micro$oft site...( if u have valid windows 🙂) if not then use autopatcher to update ur system. If I were u I would scan my system with different Antivirus like KASPERSKY, or Bit Defender or NOD32.if u want try online scanning from pccilin >> antivirus.houscall.comor symantec's online scan.-hope this helps.... Please post ur AntiVirus details and version of firmware on Modem.Agreeing with Imran ..... I will do a low level format..... of complete HDD.... just 'becuz I am panaroid.... 🙂 but thats foolproof way to clean ur HDD.-pranKster.

 

[crazy_guy]

have u installed .net in xp ? If yes then u cant get rid of the problem.Go for win 2000

Rohin Bro, PM the XP key to that person, dont post it in public forum.If someone reports that key, even that key would become like FCKGW....BTW, I myself use Genuine Windows, hate piracy! 🙂
