Service Pack Error 8007371C

I have been working on trying to download Service Pack 1 since May 10 and I
keep getting this error code. When I go out to the Microsoft site this error
code is not listed. I have done just about everything that I can think of.
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

Vista. I cannot get Vista Service Pack 1 to load. It continuously gives me
this failure code.

Thanks Taur, but I have read all these articles. I've used Microsoft Update
to load everything and everything seems to work properly until at the very
end, when it states that it fails and gives me Error Code 8007371C. I cannot
figure out what this error code is. I have attempted to load it out about
ten to fifteen times, all with the same experience.

I have not contacted the help desk which may prove to be useful. Thanks.

Depends on what you think "support" means.

I tried the "support" phone number for Windows Defender this afternoon
on the failure to update problem, only to totally waste two plus hours
with a phone droid, probably in India, with an accent so thick I had to
have him repeat things over and over, and with no real expertise in
solving the problem. All he did over the course of two plus hours was
go through the public online resources, which I told him I had done at
the very beginning of the call.

I was then supposed to get a call back from escalation within the next
couple of hours, but since that time came and went without a call back,
I had to solve the problem on my own.

In short, if you value your time and mental health, do everything you
can to solve the problem on your own.

Matter of opinion.
