Error Code: 0x52F

XP SP3, IE8, OFFICE 2007
-------------------------------
Windows Update installation Failure.

I had around 15 updates, but only the 4 Office 2007 updates were not
successful.

Security Update for Microsoft Office Excel 2007 (KB978382)
Security Update for the 2007 Microsoft Office System (KB978380)
Update for the 2007 Microsoft Office System (KB981715)
Update for Microsoft Office OneNote 2007 (KB980729)

This is the data at the top of the install updates page before install:

Download size (total): 0 KB *
Estimated time at your connection speed: 0 minutes *
(*Downloaded; ready to install)

Error Code: 0x52F

The only info I can find on this error code relates to earlier versions of
Microsoft Office.

 

Nolan,

See if this KB article helps: How to investigate and resolve update
installation failures for the 2007 Office system or for Windows
SharePoint Services 3.0
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/903776

That signifies that the updates are already downloaded to your system.
Have you tried installing the updates with the Office installation media
inserted into the CD/DVD drive ?

If you can't resolve this issue, then you can get *** no-charge ***
assistance from MS in getting the *** Security *** updates installed.
