Guest TaurArian [MS-MVP] Posted August 25, 2007 Posted August 25, 2007 Start by installing the latest WU client (because you're computer has been in storage for awhile) - WU Client 3.0 - Windows Update Agent: http://download.windowsupdate.com/v7/windowsupdate/redist/standalone/WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe or for the 64 bit version http://download.windowsupdate.com/v7/windowsupdate/redist/standalone/WindowsUpdateAgent30-x64.exe See if that fixes the problem. If not - Some have reported that simply re-registering the MSXML3.DLL seems to fix the problem. 1. Click Start. 2. Choose Run. 3. In the Run box, type: regsvr32 MSXML3.DLL Press okay If that hasn't helped you may need to re-registered some more files: 1. Click Start. 2. Choose Run. 3. In the Run box, type (pressing okay after each one) :- net stop wuauserv Repeat for the following: regsvr32 wuapi.dll regsvr32 wups.dll regsvr32 wuaueng.dll regsvr32 wuaueng1.dll regsvr32 wucltui.dll regsvr32 wuweb.dll regsvr32 MSXML3.dll regsvr32 qmgr.dll regsvr32 qmgrprxy.dll regsvr32 jscript.dll net start wuauserv -- ==================================== TaurArian [MS-MVP] 2005-2008 - Australia ==================================== How to make a good post: http://www.dts-l.org/goodpost.htm Defending your machine: http://defendingyourmachine2.blogspot.com/ http://taurarian.mvps.org/index.htm Emails will not be acknowledged - please post to the newsgroup so all may benefit.
