My internal error 2349 was caused by a dirty CDROM disk. I have a CDROM
drive, so the drive issue wasnt the cause. The issue was with Publisher on
disk 2, as I took time to do maintenance of each office program. It sounded
like a read error when the disk was reading, which caused me to glance at the
disk. I was able to then do all udates, including service packs 3.
