I'm having the identical problem. net.exe and regsvr32 did not fix it.
Errors first started showing up with Windows Installer when I tried to
install a new version of Palm desktop. So I reinstalled Windows XP from my
installation disk. Then the first time I ran Window Update, it downloaded
and installed Microsoft Windows Installer 3.1. Thereafter, it wouldn't
install any further updates.
A look at windowsupdate.log shows the following:

with the help/support for ever.

I have what appears to be the identical issue. I've tried your suggestion
several times, but it does not fix the problem. Any further ideas? |

You cannot install updates that you download from the Windows Update Web site on a Windows
XP-based computer

Thanks for the suggestion. BITS was listed as Started, with a startup type
of Manual. I set it to Automatic, rebooted, and tried again. Same error.
Any other ideas? |

Dial-a-Fix was a miracle for me. I spent several hours on the phone with
Microsoft technicians and still didn't have my problem with updates resolved.
I found this thread. The start and run of regsvr32 files did not work for
me. I downloaded Dial-a-Fix and just a little while later my issues were
resolved. Thank you, Jerry, and thank you Dial-a-Fix!

Jerry,
Just a note to say thanks for this link. Experiencing problems with updates
that only this utility fixed. Selected to fix windows installer - only
installed program shown in update history so thought might be a problem - and
windows updates. Worked like a dream. |

After spending most of the day trying to solve this problem by reading posts
and restarting my machine over and over again, etc., Dial-a-Fix solved my
problem in about 5-10 minutes. What a score! Thanks. You very likely saved
me at least another day of wasted time.
...In my case, my DataStore.edb file appeared to be corrupted. To fix the
problem, I told the Dial-a-Fix application to erase this file and then I was
able to successfully download and install the pending updates via the
Microsoft Update website. |

I tried dial a fix now my updates are working fine. I didn't have to spend to much time on this issue after one google search of this error code found this site.
Thanks again |

I was worried when I saw to download something thinking it maybe some
form of Virus or Spyware. I Googled Dial A Fix and swa it was OK.
I downloaded it and it did the trick.

hi
i had the same error code as well, but only because i tried to download window defender updates. microsoft update didn't even show error codes just kept telling me the update installations were failing.
so thanks to this site, and google for directing me here. and special thanks for the dial a fix hint.
i shall definitely use this site first rather than microsoft.
