That's the second message you've posted with empty content. If you want
help, you need to provide some context.

80070437 = "Error_Different_Service_Account" - I'm not sure how this helps
you. This number appears to have been seen previously only in the context
of WMI failures, which might indicate that your XP installation is damaged
in some way.

What update were you trying to install at the time? If the update was
KBnnnnnn, please post the contents of C:\WINDOWS\KBnnnnnn.log

If that file does not exist, please post a relevant extract of
C:\WINDOWS\WindowsUpdate.log

2. Double-click on the Automatic Updates service.
3. Click the Log On tab.
4. Check Log On as Local System Account.
5. Click Apply and OK.
6. Right-click on the Automatic Updates service and click Start.

Also check the Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS) and the Event
