    Any other pertinent details you could provide would be fantastic.

     

     

     

    Operating System?

     

    Service Pack level of said operating system?

     

    What have you tried?

     

    What antivirus application is now installed/has ever been installed?

     

    What antispyware/antiadware applications are you/have you using/used?

    Hello Fredrik,

     

     

     

    0x800f0818 CBS_E_IDENTITY_MISMATCH container package points to a package

     

    manifest whose identity doesn't match the identity specified

     

     

     

    What Operating System and Service Pack level are you using?, and perhaps

     

    what other antivirus or antimalware software you may have installed, Security

     

    suite and firewall, etc. etc.

     

     

     

    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555375

     

     

     

    Which Windows Update are you referring to?

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Ǝøçεl

    Hello,

     

     

     

    perhaps you can try a system file checker ?

     

    Do you still have the Windows Vista media ? (CD or DVD ?) if so, just

     

    insert the media and type in a administrator command prompt: "sfc

     

    /scannow".

     

    See this article: 'How to use the System File Checker tool to

     

    troubleshoot missing or corrupted system files on Windows Vista or on

     

    Windows 7' (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833)

     

     

     

    I hope this can help!
