From: dmeers on 26 Aug 2008 16:14 No, I have not found one yet. I have talked with Sony too and they can't help. "SAber" wrote: > I have an identical situation.

If so please let me know how you did it! Since you are adding your Me too! several months after the OP it would help if you clarified exactly what you mean by "the situation." ; ) However, often it helps to search for the decimal value of the last half of a hex code and try to get clues that way. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa368542.aspx (Live Search at Microsoft.com for +1647 error codes -"total views" ) <quote> ERROR_UNKNOWN_PATCH 1647 The patch is not applied to this product. Available beginning with Windows Installer version 3.0. </quote> That would suggest that the update you got is not applicable to the product you have installed or is otherwise somehow unusable. E.g. if you got the update as an automatic update from Microsoft Updates (aka MU) you could try downloading whatever that is manually from the Microsoft Update Catalog (aka MUC) and try installing it instead. http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/Search.aspx?q=KB946691 Good luck Robert Aldwinckle --- > > Thank you. > > "PA Bear [MS MVP]" wrote: > >> Crossposted to Office Update newsgroup] >> >> KB946691 is not an Office 2007 Update, it's a KB article telling you how to >> resolve the installation problem you encountered: >> >> You receive an error message when you try to install the 2007 Microsoft >> Office suite Service Pack 1 >> [ignore the listed Errors] >> http://support.microsoft.com/kb/946691 >> -- >> ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) >> MS MVP-IE, Mail, Security, Windows Desktop Experience - since 2002 >> AumHa VSOP & Admin http://aumha.net >> DTS-L http://dts-l.net/ >> >> >> KenRoy wrote: >> > I am running Vista SP1 and Office 2007.
