Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package (973923 KB): the Installation fails repeatedly.
Hello
Unfortunately, I can't get this update installed. It fails with error Code 643. I know, this isn't a specific error message, and I tried to follow the advice given here:
http://social.answers.Microsoft.com/forums/en-us/vistawu/thread/89879c8d-a63e-436a-9FD5-6183e39d1ff4/
But this file is not created.
Moreover, I get an error with Logitech SetPoint and a side-by-side installation failed. These problems can be related to each other?
Thank you very much in advance, Rob.
Windows 7 64 bit, all the updates that are installed (with the exception of C++), AMD Phenom II X 4 945, Gigabyte MA-GA770-UDP3

1. did you of recent changes on the computer?
2 are you able to install any other updates, outside this update?
3. who was the last update installed on the computer? To check the update, open the window update page and click View installed update.
Please let us know what you have already tried, it saved time at both ends.
