The error occurs when the pak0.pak is damaged for one reason or another. Usually occurs with the CD-ROM and incorrect DMA settings.
It also occurs when a certain anti-virus is on the system.
when you update, some files will be changes, and some Antivirus programs may look at it as a virus activity and disallow the change.
So :
1- DISABLE your antivirus
2- Desinstall HL
3- set OFF your cdrom DMA propriety. (make it slower to be sure write the palette file)
4- you may Change your Detonator driver(videocard nvidia driver) for a oldest version.
5-install HL and update
