[help] Windows Update

Whenever I attempt to download and install Service Pack 4 from the Windows Update page I get this error:

"The core system file (kernel) used to start this computer is not a Microsoft Windows file. The Service Pack will not be installed."

Probably easy to fix, but I need a quick answer. It turns out I have 5 viruses on my laptop.

It turns out I have 5 viruses on my laptop.

You should probably re-install.

Two possibilities:

1. You hacked your kernel. Bootscreen or login screen change.

2. You have a pirated copy of Windows.

I have the original file, I guess I'll re-use it.
