I had that issue with USB in early sp2 testing. I had to uninstall and reinstall the service pack to fix it

Hey, just wanted to post another way to fix this "Cannot create a file when that file already exists" problem:
Deleting the registry key didn't work out for me, all I got was partial deletion of the subkey, and error messages when I tried to merge the backed up registry files, saying the keys were in use by another process.

After much frustration and try and fail (with an emphasis on fail), I simply entered the device manager and uninstalled my FireWire card (texas instruments) from there, plugged it back in (it's an expresscard), reinstalled and ran the update. It worked like a charm, and felt a bit safer than messing with the registry.
