I just reinstalled Starcraft on my ultimate X64 system. But when I go on bnet, it shows me a update msg, and after the update has finished downloading, it gives an error while being applied, here's the error from the update log

Everytime I run it it's a different file that causes the error.
Thing's I've tried so far..
1. downloading the patch from blizzards website and applying manually
2. uninstalling and then clean re-installing the game
3. installing under program files and under other folders/drives
4. googling for the error and looking through bnet's tech support forums


still, nothing had solved the problem...
anyone's got any ideas?
