Error code 0x80070490 immediately after running Vista SP1

Hi,

I am trying to update my laptop to windows Vista SP1.

I am using the standalone installer but each time I try to run it as soon as
I click and accept the terms and conditions I get the Error message box with
the error code 0x80070490.

Does anyone know how to resolve this?

Thanks,

Nicolas
