error code 80070490 Vista.

I tried to get SP2 since the beginning of this year! System Restore does not work and nor does anything else! All of my updates succeeded EXCEPT:

Update for Windows Vista (KB971029)
Installation status: failed
Error details: Code 80070490

It's really irritating. It gives me the same thing when I download it manually from the Microsoft Web site. Then I click on:
Start > computer > properties > upgrade Windows Vista (I have SP1). And everything he says is 'compare the editions of windows vista) NOTHING ON AN upgrade!
I have Vista Home Premium. ASUS Notebook Series M51T and 32-bit operating system.
My system crashed ONCE but it restarts and everything was back to normal. Including the error code.

  • Error code 80070490 while search/checking the Windows updates.

    IHaving tried to solve a recent problem that occurs with Windows Update (error Code 80070490) I read and try different things that have been suggested on this forum. It appears after trying the SFC, there are a few problems with the registry that cannot be resolved automatically. I tried the automatic Microsoft difficulty he 50202 but that does not solve it. I tried a system restore, but there is no restore point before the update I managed successfully to do (31 October 2009). So finally, I tried the repair facility that suggest the majority of people. I've had this laptop since February 2009, and Vista was preinstalled. I have the DVD of resettlement for Vista Home Premium 32 BIT and have not added anything about myself, but when I try to do the upgrade to install it says it is disabled and that he needs at least a current version or the more recent than the version I am running. I don't see how it can be less common because it is the version that I've been running for 9 months and the DVD that I was sent with the laptop. I am now on the ideas and suggestions...

    Fraser,
    Well restoring factory would correct any problems if they are strictly related to software.

    If you do a normal upgrade to Windows 7 and the problems you are currently experiencing are the question within the registry, then it is likely that they could remain after the upgrade.  Now, if you perform a Custom Installation upgrade press she will move to your current Windows directory to a new folder (Windows.old) and then it will install properly.  Of course, with this option, you will need to reinstall your applications.
    If you buy a copy of Windows 7 in another country just make sure that you get the correct language and that it is a valid copy.  (Also check the version of Windows.)  You shouldn't have any problems once you get back.  Here are some links with information about Windows 7 and upgrade considerations.

    I hope this helps.

    Your operating system is corrupted. To eliminate the problems on your computer, you need to restore factory settings and rebuild your computer system.

    A recovery of the system partition contains a copy of the operating system as it was when the computer was purchased new. Using the copy of Vista, you can restore the computer to factory settings. Of course you must back up your data files to an external before restoring support as the process reformats the disk thus clearing all existing files before writing new files.

    Please read Chapter 13 (page 33) Manual:
    5738 http://global-download.Acer.com/GDFiles/document/generic%20UG/generic%20UG_Acer_1.0_A_A.zip?acerid=633967123940952836&STEP1=notebook&Step2=aspire&step3=aspire & OS = ALL & LC = en & BC = ACER & SC = EMEA_27

    The manual suggests that you have an option to restore the operating system and retain user data that I've not seen in a manual before. It is worth trying because it reduces the work involved but I would again as a precaution, back up your data files on external safety precaution if things go wrong.
