Guest Ditto007 Posted August 28, 2008 Posted August 28, 2008 I asked a question yesterday about the necessity of Service Pack3. Thanks for all the info. From the info, I guess I don't really need it. Does anyone know how to delete it from updates if I don't want it. It also shows 0 downloaded and failed to install. Now I need to know about other updates the fail to install and show 0 downloaded info. I called Dell and they said I do not need the updates for my computer and that is why they did not install. The icon showed up in my in my system tray wanting to install 2 updates. One was for Update Windows XP (KB952287) and the other was a Security Update (KB046648). My history shows they have tried to install numerous times and have failed and also failed when I try to install. Is it true that if an update does not install, you do not need it for your system? Thanks!
