Hi ducttape45,

A few days ago we were discussing something similar (except on Win-7). It seems that when a machine gets too far behind in patching and with so many patching wanting to install in a specific order Windows Update can get confused and not respnd properly.

I can’t say for sure if it will work on Vista like it works on 7 but it’s worth a try.

Good luck!

I checked it out as you suggested. Unfortunately it only works for Windows 7. I did make note of that, though, and stored it in my "New Windows 7 Installation" folder.

Thanks for the head's up on that. I'll check it out next time I install Windows 7.
