I have 8 updates that attempt to install daily but fail. They are:

Microsoft .NET Framework, Version 1.0 Security Pack 3(KB887998)
Security Update for Word 2003(KB887979)
Update for Office 2003(KB885828)
Update for Office 2003(KB887980)
Update for Office 2003(KB907417)
Update for Office 2003 French Grammer Checker(KB873381)
Update for Office 2003 French Spelling Checker and Thesaurus(KB892258)
Update for Outlook 2003 Junk Email Filter(KB905648)

How can I get more info on why they fail to install or better yet how can I get them to install? Also, do I need the French updates? I am running XP Tablet edition on a Compaq TC1000 and am running SP2 with all other updates.

Thanks... -ear

In the black box type each line followed by an enter
net stop wuauserv <enter>
net stop bits <enter>
rmdir /s /q %systemroot%\SoftwareDistribution <enter>
sc config wuauserv start=auto <enter>
sc config bits start=auto <enter>


Install the following two MS packages

http://www.microsoft...&DisplayLang=en

regsvr32.exe msxml.dll
<enter>

start > run, type,
regsvr32.exe msxml2.dll

<enter>

start > run, type,
regsvr32.exe wuweb.dll

net start wuauserv
net start bits

Step four
Are you getting a specific error message?
If so, go here and check it

http://v5.windowsupd...t.aspx?ln=en-us

Step five

Start >Run, type
regsvr32 jscript.dll
<enter>

Step six

Download and install the following

http://www.microsoft...&displaylang=en]http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...&displaylang=en

Step seven
If you are using an antivirus program (and you should be), temporarily disable it...usually done with a right click of the icon in your system tray next to the clock. If Windows Update works, contact your antivirus program vendor for an update.

Step eight
If all the above have failed, open c:\windows\windowsupdate.log in notepad, choose Edit > Select All from menu, hit the DEL key. Save the file. Visit Windows update again. After failure, ATTACH (do not copy and paste) the c:\windows\windowsupdate.log to your next post and someone will come along and help you.

I got as far as the regsvr32.exe qmdr.dll. "The specified module could not be found."

I really appreciate the help... -ear



I'm having the same problem! I got errors only on the qmdr.dll and qmdrprxy.dll. I've searched and they don't exist on my computer.

Hope gerrf replies and tells you (us!) what to do to fix that.

Barb,icekold -- please start your own threads because if we have to start reading update logs, it's going to get really messy in here.

Please refer back to this thread. I am in the middle of putting in a 6-node home network and time will be spotty today
