windows update fails to install

ok this is driving me nuts now. i got a bunch of updates as we all did but one of them refuses to install:banghead ( update for windows vista KB942763 ). microsoft site says this update is to do with Daylight Saving Time on the computer clock but the error code (80070643 ) that says it relates to microsoft office 2003. any ideas how i can get this to install or even get the updater to ignore it. it has tried to install 11 times now.:mad i got this link from Mada Windows Update Solution Center but nothing i could find there would help.

thanks guys...

 

should of added i have hide it for now.

 

You're updating manually, WW? If so, do you have the hexadecimal error code? Should look something like 0x00008425, listed at the top right of the update summary page they take you to once the process it complete.

 

do you mean when you got to microsoft update page Mada?

 

There seems to be a lot of this going around. I have XP Home, and several of this week's updates won't install. I've searched the MS Knowledge Base and tried some things suggested there, but nothing has worked.

 

when i go to the microsoft update page it redirects me to this update page on the computer.

then when i try to install it i get this.

Can you manually download and install?

 

or this:

May still work.

 

no luck Mada it still fails with that link

 

this is what i cant understand the error code is for office 2003. i dont have that on my pc so there is nothing there in services..

 

like to piggyback on this issue.
the sys in question here is Windows 2000 pro, and the symptom is one I've never seen: accessing any [i.e. "microsoft" update, "office" update, "windows" update] URL's will crash IE6... just hangs then stops, and you have to kill it off manually. this is a pretty lean system but I'm concerned with Google Toolbar, Yahoo toolbar, Logitech camera controls, Skype. somebody is causing the issue... probably active X at the core.....

 

hey halo.. i dont have office on this pc but it did come with office 2003 powerpoint viewer on it so i think you are spot on. i did get the update to install by removing comodo then reinstalled it again after the update installed.
