Windows Update cannot install Office SP2 and KB973924; codes error 78(f) and 643

Hello

I'm currently under Windows 7 64 bit which has been updated to XP in January this year.

Since July, Windows 7 update tried to install following updates without success:

1) the 2007 Microsoft Office Suite Service Pack 2 (SP1/SP2) - error code generated 78(f)

(2) security Update for Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (KB973924) - 643 generated error code

Windows Update tried to install these several times but without success.

Also, I tried to install iTunes and get the following error:

"An error occurred during the installation of assembly"Microsoft.VC80.CRT, version = "8.0.50727.4053", type = "win32", processorArchitecture, publickeyToken = "1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b" is"x 86".  See Help and Support for more information.  HRESULT: 0 X 80070002. »

I tried many internet research to try and find a solution to these problems but have had no success.  I tried the following:

(1) re-intsalled .net framework 4

(2) run the System File Checker that could not so I tried my windows disk, but it could not start because the message says that two updates were waiting to be installed

Now, I'm really worried that I have a big problem with Windows.

Well, any help that you can give to avoid reinstalling my system would be appreiated.

Thank you very much

Thanks for your help Irfan H and PA bear but unfortunately none of the above suggestions has solved my problem and I couldn't find another solution on the internet that worked.

Finally, I had to do a clean install of my system using an image of my hard drive that I created during my first installation of windows 7.  Now, everything seems to work properly and installing updates without problems.

Thanks again.

  • Windows Update - cannot install Windows SP2 or KB 979911.

    I have a Dell Inspiron 1525 with Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit Edition installed, and in January he ceased to apply the updates of Windows security.  I tried to solve this problem, but eventually gave up and reinstalled windows (gasp!).

    Well, the drive I got for the machine was 2008, so he installed Windows Vista SP1.  I then applied a bunch of updates (via Windows Update) until I came to KB 979911, when it is not (always) with error 80073712.

    I did a SFC/scannow, but there are no errors.  I then installed the Microsoft Fix it Center and installed Windows Update Fixer.  Whenever I run this from I get Windows Update components detected problems must be repaired - and the result is successful in repairing the Windows Update components.  I also get the default data location Windows Update question changed - (verified result) and the comment "where Windows Update stores modified data must be repaired.  I doesn't matter if I know.

    I also see locations of repair by default Windows Update - works not (I don't know how to run) and a comment to the locations of Windows Update change to the default settings of Windows (I don't know how do either).

    I then run KB947821 (CheckSUR) to check the status of preparation of system.  and get several registry errors 2 of each of the components and missing packets related to Package_20_for_KB937286 in the Microsft_Windows_Help_CoreClientUAHP-Pachage (and the corresponding notice of UAUE) as well as the x86_microsoft-windows-help - artcone.resources and the related medctr.resources.

    Then... I try to install SP2 (which is now coming through my Windows Update and it of fine, restarts the machine, staging 3 100% and then comes back, restarts and continues the reversion.)  He returned in the form 800f082c of the error.  Installation via the stand-alone stub leads to the same result.

    FYI... I have run diagnostics on hardware and all is well.  I'm at my wits end here, so any help is appreciated.

    HP response is for me to perform these tasks manually, then they work.

    A laptop HP, norton 360, win7 64 bit, v 4.2 running. No other product security is active. Norton is up to date. All other products (adobe, java, etc.) make their auto-mises updated successfully. MS just fails. In very rare occasions, he could succeed after decades of failures.

    The only thing that seems to be in agreement, all failures are related to MS Office and works. I am running Office 2007.
