Can't update computer - contact administrator

[Julie Mae Reck]

I can't seem to update my computer with any Microsoft updates/software. I
always get a message stating Installation Failure - error code 0x8007F004. I
am on the primary computer (connected to the router) on a very small wireless
home network. I AM THE ADMINISTRATOR. I have no issues updating my
daughters' computer, only mine. I don't know what to do at this point. I
own the computer. I am the primary user. There is no admin or user above me.
When I tried to manually install SP3 for Windows XP (not using
Microsoft/Windows Update), it said that I don't have permission to update my
computer and to contact my administrator. I am running Windows XP
Professional Version 2002 Service Pack 2. Please help! I'm at my wit's end
with this!

This has nothing to do with .NET programming. You should ask in one of
the newsgroups dedicated to the Windows operating system.
