Recommended Posts

I have been in contact with MS update over the phone for three days now to

resolve Error number: 0x8DDD0004 that I receive when I try and update Windows

XP SP2. We have been through a number of things and have had no luck. My

case number is 1043589525. Can you help me?

Thank you for your help. I have tried all that you have suggested and still

cannot update. The reason I posted here is because I have been through many

things with phone support and it seems like there is no resolve for this

issue. If you have any other suggestions they would be appreciated.

 

Thanks, Kerry
