Try installing the latest version of the Windows Update Agent.

Download it from here and *save* it:

 

x86 [32 bit]

http://download.windowsupdate.com/v7/windowsupdate/redist/standalone/WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe

 

x64 [64 bit]

http://download.windowsupdate.com/v7/windowsupdate/redist/standalone/WindowsUpdateAgent30-x64.exe

 

After the download completes stop the Automatic Updates service [Windows

Update service in Vista] via the Services console

Close all programs and browsers

Right click WindowsUpdateAgent30-xXX.exe and choose 'Run as administrator'

After the WUA installs, restart the Windows Update service via the

Services console

Did that resolve the issue ?

I'm having problems installing updates as well. I get a 8000FFFF error when I

try to install any Vista update. I installed the new Update Agent according

to your directions and it also failed with an 8000FFFF error.

80004002 indicates E_Nointerface

> For the E_NOINTERFACE error, verify that the source or server supports the

Unfortunately, the above does not reference Vista. In fact, MS has no

documentation that pertains to Vista concerning the 80004002 error

80080005 *may* be the error code that matters the most as it can be

associated with BITS and Permissons issues.

I suspect that's the problem but do not have a cure for it with Vista.

 

Which antivirus software is installed and which firewall is being used ?

Is the system on a network at home ?

 

The above *might* be the source of this issue. The cure may be to run

the system file checker due to one of the above factors or to adjust the

router's settings.
