Glenn, did you find a solution. I keep getting the same message. Also, I get
code 643. I am very computer stupid, so I don't understand a lot of the
language. And it keeps wanting me to update, over and over. I click to
update, it says it is doing it, but then my computer restarts, and asks me to
update again. I have been doing this for HOURS. Can you help. I really need
step, by step instructions.

Have you tried inserting your Office 2007 CD into the appropriate drive bay
before attempting to install the updates again?

I've been getting the 646 error on all most all of my updates for the past
week or so. I can click on "review your update history" and then click on
each one and manually download and install them (which works) but with as
many updates as Microsoft puts out, this is not a viable solution.

I'm having the same problem. Updates a few days ago went thru fine. I can not
get these 3 updates to update at all. Hope someone figures this out!

I have be getting the error code646 regardless if I try to install the 5
updates I have all together or one at a time. My problem has only been since
the 16th Oct so not been happening for long. (i am also using Windows Vista).

My PC won't install these latest updates and I too get the code 646 error
msg. Could it have anything to do with not having the new IE8 installed?
Anyway, now I do not know how to shut the update icon down (bottom right
corner) it is constantly telling me I have new updates to install. DUH! I
know that, but they will not install. I hope someone finds a solution to this
problem.
