In the cases I have seen so far, uninstalling the Windows Media Player 11 beta and then attempting to reinstall Update Rollup 2 has proven successful. The following steps can be used to accomplish this:
1. Click on the Start menu, choose Run, type appwiz.cpl and click OK to go to the Add or Remove Programs Control Panel
2. Check the box labeled Show updates in the top middle of the Add or Remove Programs window
Locate the item named Microsoft Windows Media Player 11 and choose to uninstall it
3. Attempt to install Update Rollup 2 again by returning to Windows Update or running the setup package located here
4. After successfully installing Update Rollup 2, re-install the Windows Media Player 11 beta
Aaron has further information on how to determine if this is an issue on your system.
