Installing Service Pack 4 in win2k Data Center

[Chow Shan Yuen]

W2k Data Center already installed in my system, but how to installing SP4 ?
I had patch it with slipstream trick but still didn't work.
This my step :
- mkdir e:\w2ksp4
- extract w2ksp4_en.exe /x to e:\w2ksp4
- extract the patch file to e:\w2ksp4\i386\update\
- run the patch file. (and success dialog appear)

But when i run update.exe the same error dialog appear.
("This service pack has not been qualified by your hardware vendor for
installation on this copy of Windows 2000 Datacenter Server.")

Must i reinstall my win2kDTC again ?

Thanks.

I got same prob with Windows Server 2003 Datacenter Edition when installing new SP1 from Microsoft.Windows.Server.2003.x86.SP1.Build.1184-WinBeta.iso


Error message reads:


Service Pack 1 Setup Error

This Service pack 1 has not been qualified by your hardware vendor for installation on this copy of Windows Server 2003 Datacenter Server.

Please contact your hardware vendor for additional information on obtaining a Service Pack 1 that has been qualified for your system configuration.



Can anyone help?
