Like Mr Kingsbury, I did a search for any problems related to my problems,

and this is the one that comes the closest.



I have windows Version 6 (Build 6002: Service pack2)

Physical memory available to Windows: 8,386,876



I have a quadcore AMD processor and an Nividia MB.



I cannot install H&R Block tax software, nor any of the office 2003 updates.



I have ran the proscribed programs you suggested above.



Reset the ose.exe to all possible options and rebooted after each change,

and still get exactly the same error.



For H&R Block I get " Error 1935. An error occurred during the installation

of assembly component



{76C3F0F6-9B9D-35DA-81C6-CA8A88CC93CA}.



HRESULT: 0x80070003."



And for the MS updates I consistently get the following codes: 652, 643,

80070643.



While you may consider this to be off topic, and in the wrong place, we

should not be required to sift through 39 million possible combinations of

search phrases to find exactly the correct phrase.



I did not purchase Vista 64 Home Premium so that I could become a master

computer technician.



I was beginning to get comfortable with MS DOS, when the introduced Windows.

Through each version since then I have learned to make it work as well as

possible.

This is undoubtedly the most difficult version to work with so far.



It updates daily and fails daily. Sometimes it allows installation of

software, and sometimes it doesn't.

Under the windows folder I have one subfolder with over 74,000 files and

subfolders apparently from 'updates' in only one year.



I would sincerely appreciate some quality help without an attitude.



Thank You,



Drew Dickey

No one has asked you to 'sift through' anything or become a 'master computer

technician' - I implied (and am now pointing out) it is better for you and

those who might come across your posting to start a FRESH posting with the

information for your problem as opposed to the 'me too' thing.



I am trying to tell you and anyone else reading this that it is better to

ask your own question after looking for your answer and the suggested ways

of posting than to tack onto a year+ old posting that may have some of the

same look/feel as your issue.



That's just the way things are around here - it makes sense, has made sense

for years. Especially in the case of this posting with its age and not

quoting any of the original message (the one you are responding to, not

necessarily yours.)



You are responding to a posting you are where you may be seeing, in some

forum, something that has synchronized the entire conversation. Not

everyone sees the same thing. Some people will only see your response and

what you choose to leave quoted in your response. Not everything. It is

synchronized to likely hundreds of different servers around the world likely

being accessed in many different ways by probably hundreds of thousands of

individuals.



As far as 'quality help without attitude'... Although I don't consider my

posting given with any attitude, just the facts and queries one might need

to resolve their own issue and perhaps learn a little in the process about

their system and ways to get better responses/give better information about

their system when they need help I feel I would be lax in my own

responsibilities if I didn't point out that this is a peer-to-peer

newsgroup. That means I may be doing the exact same thing in life as you.

I may not have anything to do with computers other than I use them for

something just like you do. Just people helping people. Expectations

should not be brought here. -)



No requirements, no limits. Two or more people having a conversation about

a problem and trying to assist each other through to a solution. It's also

in writing - any inflection/emotion you choose to put on it is just that,

emotion _you chose_ to put on it (unless otherwise noted... -) )



I never said this was 'off-topic' - I said it would be better to give

information about your problem - things specific to you and yours - not just

decide that problem is 'close enough' and tack onto it.



You have no idea if you did the same as Fred Kingsbury. We do not know if

they were searching the Internet and came across the post they responded to

or it happened to be the first thing they saw on the only web-based leechng

forum (eggheadcafe.com) they came across that was similar to the original

query made a year and a half prior or that if it wasn't the only way they

could figure out to post something *somewhere*. After all - all they said

in response to the whole conversation was, "The Preparing to install

windows, always comes up, shuts down programs and in general makes my

computer useless" --> Is that similar to your issue? Similar to your issue?

(No - it is not similar to your issue, as you actually described your issue

in pretty good detail.)



What I know about Fred Kingsbury's issue to this day:

Their computer is useless to them and they *might* have Windows Vista of

some flavor and architecture with some service pack installed (the latter

really just gleemed from where they decided to post - but since you can

search and see Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 and all sorts of other

queries in this group - no guarantees.)



What I know about your issue:

You have Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit with Service Pack 2.

You have 8GB of physical memory.

You have a quad-core (*shrug*) AMD processor and an NVidia motherboard

(really - is it one of those small boxes?)

You believe Windows Vista is the most difficult version of Windows you

have used to date.

Your updates are failing on you with error(s) 652, 643 and/or? 80070643.

You did everything I suggested (and something extra with the Microsoft

Office Source Engine I did not suggest.)



You definitely provided plenty - but there are many fine people out there

(just hard working honest people) who will see your posting has "Re:" in the

subject line and may never look at it - just because it is a response - not

a new problem to be conquered. Just letting you and everyone else know. If

you think that is 'an attitude' thing - well - that's your right (and

mistake IMHO - I am just trying to help someone else - someone I do not

know, will likely never meet) - but it is just what I see wnd what I know

others do after years of being around here.



So - looking at your problems and the problem you responded to:

http://www.microsoft.com/communitie...91-a8dd-f8faae8b2bde&cat=&lang=&cr=&sloc=&p=1



Honestly - I do not get the similarity. -) If you started your own

posting, it would make more sense - but now you are saying your problem is

similar to this one - which confuses me since you made no mention of seeing

the "Preparing to Install" windows update screen that never installs. You

actually get failures. That's why it makes sense to start your own posting,

IMO.



Make sure your backups are CURRENT before you do anything.



Have you gone to the H&R Block support page? Contacted them to see what

they have to say the error, "Error 1935. An error occurred during the

installation of assembly component {76C3F0F6-9B9D-35DA-81C6-CA8A88CC93CA}.

HRESULT: 0x80070003." might mean when coming from their software?



(Make sure your backups are CURRENT before you do anything, however.)



Do you have a C:\Users\Default folder? (You may have to unhide files, allow

yourself to see all system/hidden files to check for its existance.)

(Make sure your backups are CURRENT before you do anything, however.)

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/942967/

(Although you get the error when doing something else - could be your fix.)



Try method 10 (Make sure your backups are CURRENT before you do anything,

however.)

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/822798



Can you give a list of the updates that the system is wanting to install but

cannot (by KB######)?

Why bother to reply if it is so painful to deal with EggHeadcafe

nutters. Ignore those posts and move on to something bigger, perhaps

better and hopefully very satisfying!!!

1) I did not call anyone posting from/repying to EggHeadCafe posts any

names - it's not their fault EggHeadCafe is leeching older posts and/or that

they do not know any better routes to take. Thus when someone replies to

them and lets them know - some of them might change, others might read that

response later while looking for answers there and change to another venue

for answers. Teaching and learning - a loop. If that is not how it works

all the time, *shrug*, too bad. No big deal.



2) GrumpyOldGoat did not seem to use EggHeadCafe. "X-Newsreader: Microsoft

CDO for Windows 2000" would indicate the Microsoft Web Interface for the

newsgroups.



3) I never said either of these responses were painful. If you read that

into my postings for some reason, that is a mistake. I chose to reply this

time because it was to me directly, I thought I might be able to help with

the issue at hand and also educate on where some of GrumpyOldGoat's

conclusions and reasonings might need to be re-examined due to inaccurate or

incomplete information. Whether or not that re-examination occurs is out of

my hands and whether or not it changes the conclusions and reasonings is not

really a concern either. Each their own. As I said in #1, *shrug*, too

bad. No big deal.



We are all just filling in the time between birth and death. I like to

learn as much as I can and stay occupied.

I instigated this conversation directly to Shenan.



WE got off on the wrong foot due to misunderstanding on how this board works.



Life is good on my end, and we are working on the issues.



Thanks for trying to help, but please don't drown my lifeguard.... =)
