"listar",

Thank you for your question. This newsgroup is dedicated to questions about
Windows Update. There is an actual newsgroup that deals with Software
Update Services. Here it is:

microsoft.public.softwareupdatesvcs

Please let us know if you have any issues with downloading from Windows
Update.

Sincerely,

Hi

See if the tip from Eric57 works for you:

I had originally posted a solution for .NET Framework 1.0 643 errors,
but the same methodology will solve the problem for 1.1 errors. In
addition, the following steps may rectify other hex code errors. The
problem is a corrupt Framework library and the solution is to restore
it to a previous working state. The important thing is to use the
correct .NET Framework Redistributable library in the following steps.

MS is aware of the Framework corruption issues as documented in the
following two files:

\<windows dir>\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.0.3705\repair.htm <--1.0
\<windows dir>\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\1033\repair Redist.htm <--1.1

They note: "You may need to repair your installation of the .NET
Framework after upgrading your operating system or if the system
becomes corrupted". Each then recommend using "dotnetfx.exe" to
restore the .NET Framework to a previous state.

To obtain the correct dotnefx, first download either the

".NET Framework 1.0 Redistributable"
or
".NET Framework 1.1 Redistributable"

from: http://msdn.microsoft.com/netframewo...s/default.aspx

This download is a self-extracting file named "dotnetredist.exe".
Click on it to obtain the "dotnetfx.exe" file. Next, from a command
line prompt, change to the directory containing "dotnetfx.exe" and
enter:

dotnetfx.exe /t:%temp% /c:"msiexec.exe /fvecms %temp%\netfx.msi"

Note that the quotes are required after the /c: switch. When the
installer is done, invoke Windows Update and select the failed
Framework Service Pack for reinstall. WU should now complete and
mark the update as Installed.

Hope this helps,
Eric Webb

If the above doesn't work, and it is the .NET Framework v1.1 you
have trouble with, you could try this one:

Note this one from the URL above:

4. Zap Windows Installer information from the registry by using the
Msizap.exe utility. The Msizap.exe utility is included with Microsoft
Windows Installer Software Development Kit (SDK). To download Windows
Installer SDK, visit the following Microsoft Web site:

http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/...sdk/sdkupdate/

A bit overkill to download and install WI SDK to obtain Msizap.exe ;-)

MSIZAP.EXE is included as a utility in the support tools installation
package on the WinXP CD.

Install "Support Tools" by starting suptools.msi from
<cd-drive>\Support\Tools\

Also note that there is updated versions of Support Tools available:

Windows XP Service Pack 2 Support Tools
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...1-ba8011fabf38

If you don't have a WinXP CD, it should be ok to install and use the
downloadable SP2 version of Support Tools on a WinXP SP1 computer.
