Dear all,

Downgrading from Vista to XP

A problem on your computer is preventing updates from being downloaded
or installed.

I am having this Problem each time I WU How do I fix it?

I found there is a cure at

Dear all

I want to try first the Method 2: Download and install the Windows
Update Agent

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/949104/

My question is, do I have to run the WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe
after XP (clean install) and before WU?

Thanks in advance for any information you can provide

If Method 1 does not address the problem, yes.
