XP fails: Security Update for Windows XP (KB2686509)
Hello.
I keep harassing to install the update for Windows XP (KB2686509) security, but the keeps installation not. No information about the reason.
I ran the 'Fix It' program. Had no effect whatsoever. My Windows XP looks ok in all other respects, except one: it will not install any version of Direct X from a previous version has been uninstalled months ago - I'm sure that it's irrelevant, but I mention it for completeness. That said, it seems to behave normally.
Oh and I disabled my Avast antivirus so it can't be blamed either. Ideas anyone? Thank you!

I recently enabled Microsoft Update for my XP Media Edition 2004 after his being unavailable for a year due to corruption Trojan. The solution that worked there was rename the CATROOT2 folder and the SofwareDistribution folder in the Windows directory in the Windows > System32 directory and reboot. This solution came from the Microsoft site. After that, I was able to download and install 50 of 51 updates. A fails repeatedly: update for Windows XP (KB2686509) security. I get error code 0 x 8007005. I tried several fixes, including one designated for error 0 x 8007003 (rename file) download at download.old as well as the use of aggressive mode on Microsoft Fixit. Always fails to update. All other updates installed correctly, including a new this morning, but of course update continues offering that failed. Any ideas on how to get this installed? This is a relatively new, so I'm not sure that the problem is that it is already there, but the first failure was around 40 of the 51 when I check the history update file. Thanks for your suggestions.

I get the ready to install icon every day, all the time. Downloads, it will fail to install. I looked at the history of the installation failed, and the error code is 0x8007f0f4.

I need emergency assistance.
Thank you
Ok. I am back.
Have you tried the manual steps in the bulletin after the correction, it did not work? Please answer.
Start > run > type chkdsk/r > press on enter or OK > enter Y at the prompt > Reboot
When she returns to the top, click on start > run > eventvwr.msc > press on enter or OK > go to Application, Type: Information, Source: Winlogon. Paste and copy in a txt file and then try to download and install the manual update of http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=D67E4D8C-AEB9-45E6-9555-7456C5540475
If it fails, paste the contents of the file txt on your next reply. Also download the KB2481109.log on your SkyDrive (if you have an account here, you automatically have a SkyDrive account) public folders and add the URL of it to the next reply.
I fear that we will have to do a replacement of manual file in the end, but let's try this first.
