Error 80070490 continues. Fix - It of MS, analysis system, sfc/scannow tool and more do not help. Please can you help me walk me through this WITHOUT formatting and starting over?

Error 80070490 continues.  Fix - It of MS, analysis system, sfc/scannow tool and more do not help.
I can't use the Windows installation CD because the 'upgrade' option is NOT available!
Seems like everything is against me trying to find a way to solve this error.  I have run these scans,... rebooted several times and no luck.   Spin on a startup select too trying to solve probs.  I use MS Security Essentials that updates automatically. : (Had this problem 6 months ago and email support walked me through to solve.)  However, the link to that support is no longer available.   I would LOVE it if MS Fix - It really solve problems WU, but not for me and it looks like a lot of people posting here have the same chance.

Running Windows Vista Home Edition with SP 1 and SP 2.   All Windows updates are automatic until almost a month ago.

Microsoft Security Essentials auto updates, scheduled full scans.  Scanned for malware and some found and removed.
All MS site suggested I have try, I tried.  Fix, it doesn't do a thing.
HELP :)
