Have you got a popup stopper which would have interfered? ; )
Otherwise, as usual, trying to diagnose and resolve a problem with an install
based only on an error code is a fruitless exercise. Search the files that
the update modified for human readable files which contain the code
(in either representation) and find the _context_ of the error in them.
BTW I don't have your OS so I'm cross-posting to a Vista NG.
Another alternative would be to download and install the update manually.
Then any problems with it would be independent of the update's deployment
(e.g. MU) so your problem would be more relevantly discussed in a the Office
Update NG.
Good luck
