Thanks for the reply Clint.
I got it to work and this is what I had to do.
1. Click Start Run and type regsvr32 wuapi. dll
2. When you receive the message that the DLL has been registered, click
OK and perform the same steps for each of the following
commands under Start Run:
regsvr32 wuaueng1. dll
regsvr32 wuaueng. dll
regsvr32 wucltui. dll
regsvr32 wups2. dll
regsvr32 wups. dll
regsvr32 wuweb. dll
After completing this the updates went without problems. I declined to
install SP3 however.

Some that have installed SP3 have this problem but I assume
you're talking about SP2. What are the *exact* messages you're
receiving, have you tried searching for those? Are you
shutting down EVERYTHING that's running in the background?
At that URL's search box, type in: update and look at all
the auto-complete options they've added. Also try: cannot
install and: can't install. Your BITS service may not be

This is my wifes computer, a Dell 5150 with XP pro on it.
I've had this problem and posted it back in Feb 2008 when Hugh
gave me a
site to visit with some input from M$.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/822798
I was unable to get the problem solved. The very first item I
tried came
back and said could not do it as the file was in use.
Does anyone have a suggestion on how to get the updates to
install?
I have 102 that won't install. They download ok but when I tell
them to
install the go thru the motions and then at the end say that
the
following have not installed, which is all of them. I tried one
at a
time which is a pain when you have 101 to unclick.
The only other option I know of it to reinstall the original
software
which is SP1a and I am not sure it would fix it.
appreciate the help.
