Installing hotfix from MS KB978897
Hi, I'm trying to install the hotfix from MS KB978897 on a server running Windows Server 2008 SP2. I requested a download of the hotfix, but there were two files.: 417533_intl_x64_zip.exe & 430589_intl_x64_zip.exe. Both were listed on the hotfix download page for Server 2008 x64. I know how to install them. I'm wondering if I need both or just one of them? Has anyone installed this hotfix? Thanks

I suggest you download the latest version. In this case, 430589_intl_x64_zip.exe is possible the best option. Take a try.Sharpening

Hi Arthur-Li, I tried you suggestion of installing both starting with the newer file as suggested by Sharpening. When I tried to install the older file I was told it did not apply. Not sure if that's because I installed the newer one first or it genuinlly didn't apply. Either way the hotfix is installed. Thanks for your responses. -D43m0n
