windows vista update error Code 8024402F

[System]

Hi there,I can't update Windows Vista.I recently had to re-install and installed all updates up to and beyond SP1 and SP2 over the course of a few days. I had to manually download and install the Service Packs from the Microsoft website because Update didn't seem to want to install them.Anyway, that was last week and now I can't get updates and my update history is blank. I'm really hoping that I don't have to start from scratch here.The last major things to have been installed were software bits to allow me to use a Seagate 2tb internal second drive.I've recently tried all the advice on this page, to no avail. Some of the suggestions just weren't applicable/possible, such as software accelerators or host files modification - I opened my host file but there was just some sample blurb in the document, nothing
that looked like entries: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/836941Thanks!Mat
