Try downloading and running 'AU Check' from here: http://www.codeplex.com/aureset

After running it, see if those updates will install.

Download Windows Update Fix to your desktop.
Double click on downloaded file, and allow registry merge.
Restart computer.

I open up Windows Update from the Notifications bar in the bottom right hand corner

It saids i have a total of 4 important updates to install which are the following:

Security Update for Microsoft XML Core Services 4.0 Service Pack 2 - 6/24/2008
Security Update for 2007 Microsoft Office System - 10/14/2008
Security Update for Microsoft Office Excel 2007 - 10/14/2008
Update for Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 Junk Email Filter - 10/14/2008

I try to install the updates and it saids:

Some Updates were not installed
Succeeded: 1 Update
Failed 3 updtaes

Errors found:
Code 80070643 - Windows has encountered an unknown error

And the only one it states was successful was the XML Core Serives but after every rebbot it still appers

So what do i do?
