I am working on a Dell Inspiron 5100 with an OS of XP Service Pack 3.

I'm trying to update the BIOS to upgrade the memory from 512 mb to 2g.

The .Net Framework update continues to failed and I get this information on the dd_dotnetfx35error.txt:

[08/22/09,18:35:50] XPSEPSC Installer: [2] Error code 1603 for this component means "Fatal error during installation.
"
[08/22/09,18:35:51] XPSEPSC Installer: [2] Setup Failed on component XPSEPSC Installer
[08/22/09,18:36:13] WapUI: [2] DepCheck indicates XPSEPSC Installer is not installed.

After some research I found the dd_XPS.txt document and it states this information:

[dd_XPS.txt]
0.551: ================================================================================
0.551: 2009/08/22 18:35:50.052 (local)
0.551: c:\cec7927bac6a2dd6f68465ee602eb0\update\update.exe (version 6.3.13.0)
0.551: Failed To Enable SE_BACKUP_PRIVILEGE
0.551: Setup encountered an error: You do not have permission to update Windows XP.
Please contact your system administrator.
0.561: You do not have permission to update Windows XP.
Please contact your system administrator.
0.561: Update.exe extended error code = 0xf004
0.561: Update.exe return code was masked to 0x643 for MSI custom action compliance.

The user has administrative rights but apparently not, if I'm getting the above message. How do I set the user up as the system administrator to install this .net framework update.

Hopefully this is suffecient information to get this resolved. Thank you for your help.

Hello,
According to the specs, this laptop supports 1GB ram. Is the bios you're trying to update the correct bios? Do you have a link to where this bios came from?
