Re: Can't install SP5 on XP

It's the Windows "Temp" files. They get corrupted, and won't allow the
install to proceed. Also, they cause repetitious "free space errors" in
Win9x, which are deadly for the O/S..

Microsoft's been telling us for lo-these-many-years that "The Windows O/S
removes these temp files on reboot". Oh really? Is that why I've seen
machines (including my own) with ALL versions of Windows building 200-300mb
old "Temp" files that NEVER go away?

Here's the answer (although there are many, this is really good)...select to
run the "EmpRunner" portion as a continuous operation from the TaskBar.
Default is "45 minutes" and that seems to work just fine.
