Hello, Client Service Pack is 2, and I try to remove KB 974571, and it solve error 0x00002004 but after finish capturing and start Release User State, I receive error 0x00004005 Best Regards --- Abduljalil Abolzahab Technical Specialist - Microsoft Technical Forum: http://Forum.fourtyfivecorp.net

I'll try to install hotfix and test itBest Regards --- Abduljalil Abolzahab Technical Specialist - Microsoft Technical Forum: http://Forum.fourtyfivecorp.net

It seems SMP cannot be contacted. Please try to read SMSTS.log to confirm it. If so, please reinstall State Migration Point. Hope it helps.

Hi, I'm experiencing exactly the same problem. Have you got a solution for this problem? Many thanks. Rgds.

Check the following: 1. Of Course make sure the XP System does not have KB974571 is not installed. 2. Run the Certfix on the XP Client, and all systems actually (from extracted 977203) For the Capture State theTask Sequence , which is its own Task Sequence it must do the following: 1. Request State Store 2. Capture User State 3. Release State Store (this part is not doucmented very well it seems, and was what I had missing...without this you get an error 0x80004005) For the Restore State Note:It should be the last thing in your OSD Task Sequence 1. Restart the Computer Task (use currently installed O/S) 2. Request State Store 3. Restore User State 4. Release State Store I hope the above helps out and sees you through to success!!!David Baur
