Vista Updates Will Not Uodate?

Hello,

The past three or four days I have been having trouble with the last two
Vista updates, kb941600 and kb941649. Vista update keeps trying to
install them and restarting the system, but they seem to fail and then
update starts all over again.

I tried downloading, and installing, the two updates manually without
success. Update still tries installing them and restarting, again
without success. I also tried installing them in safe mode, but they
indicated they couldn't be installed in safe mode. I do not know what
else to try?

Any suggestions and/or recommendations would be appreciated,

Steven

Thank you Andre,

Just glancing at this information, it appears to address the Vista 64
version? I'm running Vista Ultimate 32bit. Could this be my problem?

Thanks again,

Steven

Hi Steven,

They apply to both the 32 bit and 64 bit Vista.
