Hi John, need to see the failed error messages in the Update log in Windows:-
Click Start, and then click Run.
In the Open box, type: %windir%\windowsupdate.log
and then click OK.
Scroll down towards the bottom for the latest entries to locate the error code(s)
associated with the latest failed attempt to download/install. If appropriate copy and
paste the error codes into this thread so someone may be able to assist you. On the other
hand, you may be able to find the error code and other suggestions by searching the
Newsgroup.
Also check Windows folder for file called KB******.log (****** = number of update ie
KB896688) and post the contents of the failed update.
This may provide further clues as to why the update failed.
How to read the Windowsupdate.log file:

| Hi,
|
| I'm having problems unstalling update items. I have run a repair of windows
| XP (for a Dell laptop) as the CD drive was not being recognized by windows
| (still doesn't see the drive as recordable device but other software copes OK
| - Nero & SonicNow) and de-installed then re-install Office 2003 (Windows
| install cleanup). I have then updated Office from the website. The following
| items cannot install:
