Hi thanks for the reply, i tried that and it made no diff. Im going to run a repair install on the vista install, that should work. Ill post back on here afterwards to let others know if it worked or not for future reference.
Thanks again

I have seen that error before. It was caused by a firewall. Try to disable your firewall "be it" the Vista firewall or one that comes with McAfee or Norton Internet protection package or any other firewall that you might have installed. Than do the update. Don't forget to re-enable the firewall after the update is completed.
