Hi, i have a compaq C700 laptop running vista home premium 32bit. While trying to install KB938371, my computer freezes when the bar is about 2/3 done in windows update. I am forced to turn my computer off, and do a system restore to get my laptop working normally again. Any suggestions what is going on, and what I can do to install this update successfully as it looks necessary for getting SP1 later. Thanks in advance. :D

have a look in your error logs by clicking on the start menu and right clicking on my computer.
Look in the events tab for anything in the last 24 hours.

I looked at that link, it seems it is just description of this update and a link to the knowledge base article. Am i missing something?
It seems this update is required before i will be able to install SP1 so it seems critical that i figure out what is wrong so i can get it installed. Is it possible it might help to manually download the update from microsoft's website and install it like that without windows update?
thanks

Don't know if this will help, but i found that at the time windows update was downloading this update (not installing), it gave this error and many similar errors (the number before it says RTM is different in each of the errors:
Windows Servicing failed to complete the process of changing update 938371-303_RTM_neutral_LDR from package KB938371_37(Update) into Staging(Staging) state

go into windows update.
Check your update history.
If KB938371_37 is installed then uninstall it.
Then try to update manually.
Also try to download from the normal microsoft site (Not the update).
