Posted September 10, 200816 yr Bravo Peter Foldes. Your solution has apparently also fixed my 0x80070643 error on the most recent (September 9, 2008) Windows Update for KB953404 and KB954478. Now if only I could cross-reference your solution into my post! Thank you for your solution (the updates installed successfully).
