Thats what i get whenever i try to update a driver from the m$ version to the manufacture's. Any ideas. All automactic services have started if that helps. Cheers. WinXp btw guys.

Which version of XP are you running, Pro or Home?
If Pro, have you set yourself as an administrator?

Do a CTRL-ALT-DEL and see if:

Rundll32.exe is running, if it is kill the process off, and now try to install the drivers.

Hopefully that should work.
