Dreamscene dissapeared from Vista Ultimate x64

I did have a fully functional, Dreamscape, from Oct. when I first install
Vista Ultimate x64, and updated with the included Vista Ultimate Extras.
Everything was fine, until the 2nd Tuesday in January. I discovered updates
were on Auto(which I swore I turned off, but that's another problem) and it
was after those updates, I started getting the:

Windows Installer Component has Stopped.

After searching around, I found a workaround, that required the windows
update installer to be removed & re-installed. When I finished, that module,
stayed on.

It was after this, that I discovered Dreamscape no longer worked.

Is there anyway I can delete, the dreamscape portions I have, which would
cause the Windows update to see I need The Dreamscape components again?

Thanks,

I guess you're not going crazy. After installing Vista Ultimate several
times I have noticed that it indeed sets Auto Updates back on after you turn
it off. It does that once or twice and then it leaves it off. Maybe it's a
way MS found to force users to use this "feature".

I have no clue about your Dreamscape problem though .... good luck.
