Clearly there's something amiss with your system because SP3 installs just fine on a healthy one.

Since it appears your memory passed and is not the issue then as I indicated earlier it would be best to rule out malware as a possibility.

Click on the "Prework" in my signature and follow directions exactly.

Once logs are posted we'll move you to the security specialist section.

I have media center edition... I have recovery disk so which basically reformats the drive and then install new windows which is Media Center Edition. I've done that and it's the second time, I think i got the same thing and thats why i dont want to update it.

The important part of that error message is the line with the "stop:" error and line below it if there is one.

First let's just play it safe and rule out malware.

Click on the "Prework" link in my signature and follow directions exactly as instructed.
