For some reason the damned updater doesnt work on my macbook c2d. I have the 2.0ghz blackbook and I dont get why I cant install this update (even though I dont necessarily need it at this point).

Can someone help me figure out why it wont install? It says my HD doesnt qualify for the install or something like that.

Is it very new? Have you checked if n hasn't already been activated at the factory? Oh and btw, you need to install AirPort Extreme Update 2007-001 before you can run the n updater. Check SoftwareUpdate.
