GregII, do you have this resolved? If not, try opening Impulse and go to Preferences and click on Reset Data. Close and relaunch Impulse and try the update again.

Just installing DeskScapes causes my wallpaper to disappear. The DeskScapes Config UI flashes open then disappears when I attempt to launch it.
Rebooting was no help. Had to uninstall it to get my normal desktop back.
Dell Vostro 1500 laptop, XPP SP3, NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT.
