All fixes FAILURE of Ox800AOO46 error

Help, please

Windows Update does not work on my laptop.

Under XP, SP3

Update doesn't even come close to making a scan before I get error code o800a0046

I followed all the prompts to fix this myself.  Nothing has worked.

Security Discriptors, etc...

I ran virus scan, nothing was found.

Fix, it does nothing.

I'm really at a loss here.  I'm not super computer literate, but have always been able to work out the kinks on mine, but it left me speechless.

Automatic updates is turned on, but I'm not aware if it actually works.  Originally, noticed issue when you go to update and check for the updated driver.  At the time, somehting got goofy and after some research, that it seemed like an update of the driver was in... could order so long now, I don't remember even what prompted it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

If you have any questions about the clean install, please start a new thread in this forum: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_xp-system

[Your best bet is still using the Recovery hidden partition, if any, in my humble OPINION.]
