Guest Ark Posted September 8, 2007 Posted September 8, 2007 Greetings. My windows updater is working fine for everything but this daylight savings one, KB 933360. As I live in New Zealand which is one of the affected countries I would like to install it. Each time it tries to install it fails. I've also tried downloading it manually using... http://support.microsoft.com/gp/dst_hu3?Submit1=Download http://support.microsoft.com/kb/933360 The windows updater seems to download it alright but fails to install with this error, taken from the final line of the update log. AutomaticUpdates Failure Content Install Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x80070643: Update for Windows Vista (KB933360). When I click for help on this error it tells me to ensure that the office source engine is set to automatic with delay instead of manual. I have changed this and it has made no difference. Any thoughts on why this update is not installing. Other ones in the same list have installed fine. It's only this one giving me grief.
Guest Engel Posted September 8, 2007 Posted September 8, 2007 Error 0x80070643 is returned, and the extended error is 1000-1999 or (0x3e8-0x7cf) See if http://support.microsoft.com/kb/906602 helps - -- -- "Ark" wrote: > Greetings. > > My windows updater is working fine for everything but this daylight savings > one, KB 933360.

Guest Ark Posted September 8, 2007 Posted September 8, 2007 After much trial and error I fixed this issue. Turns out the Office Source Engine was being blocked by a firewall. Windows Vista being reasonably new there's not much around in the way of freeware firewalls. I was using a BETA version of Comodo. Even though there was no indication of this specifically blocking something during the install process it worked as it should after I uninstalled that firewall software. I guess there's a lesson to be learned about using BETA software that operates at a system level...
