My computer has been diagnosed as clean:

My problem is that I cannot get Service Pack 1 to install. It consistently reads that I should try and close applications, but I don't think I am running any. Do I need to go into task manager and turn off those applications?

Closing the Applications in the task manager did not work. Neither did trying to install the update using only the minimum settings.

Any suggestions?
