Fresh install of 2003 Server. Installed SP1 From disk, now windows won't update. Any Ideas?
 
Check the event logs. If there's nothing, then
Roll back. See if the updates work.
 
I'm having the exact same problem. If I go to the Windows update site, a few seconds later the whole computer freezes. I'm uninstalling SP1 for now, but it would be nice to be able to put it back on at some point.
 
I think I just fixed the problem. The version of Windows Update that was on my server was v5. I went to (not windowsupdate.microsoft.com) and it asked if I wanted to install the latest update software. I did it, and now I can go to the regular windows update site with no problems.
