Try this:

 

Get Dial-a-Fix:

http://wiki.djlizard.net/Dial-a-fix

 

Use its options to fix:

- Windows Installer

- Windows Update

- All the Registration Center options.

 

Turn off the "Empty System32\Catroot 2"

Do NOT do "Flush SoftwareDistribution".

 

Then click "GO" and wait until it is done... Reboot may be needed.

 

- Download/Install Windows Update v3.

http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=91237

(You may need to install it using the command line switch "/wuforce" right

after an additional reboot - immediately after logging in.)

 

- Download/Install the 927891 patch.

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=7A81B0CD-A0B9-497E-8A89-404327772E5A

 

- Reboot.

 

- Visit http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/ and scan for/install updates.

 

- Come back and let us know how things went!

You'll have to be a little more specific. Software updates? Windows Updates?

Have you seen any error messages?

 

Click Start > Run > type "eventvwr" (no quotes). Open the "System" section,

and/or the "Applications" section, and look in the right-hand pane for error

messages. If you see one or more that you think might pertain, post the

message here.
