Microsoft has a resolution for that error. Hope this helps.

Hi,
I've received repeated install reminders to pick up this patch from MS site. I've tried numerous times to install this patch but when I restart the computer after appearing to have downloaded everything, I get the following message:
"Windows could not upgrade the file %1 from %2 %1:%2"
This message is repeated about 15-20 times in my start up DOS looking screen. Then it comes to a stop and says, "to start windows, hit any key". This starts up the computer but within a couple of weeks I get this reminder about service pack 1 again. Clearly I need help. "Help!"
