Datastore error on XP SP1 machines

I've got a few XP machines with the following error:

Event Type: Error
Event Source: ESENT
Event Category: Logging/Recovery
Event ID: 494
Date: 2/2/2007
Time: 2:14:18 AM
User: N/A
Computer: HOSPOR115
Description:
wuauclt (2028) Database recovery failed with error -1216 because it
encountered references to a database,
'C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore\DataStore.edb', which is no longer
present. The database was not brought to a consistent state before it was
removed (or possibly moved or renamed). The database engine will not permit
recovery to complete for this instance until the missing database is
re-instated. If the database is truly no longer available and no longer
required, please contact PSS for further instructions regarding the steps
required in order to allow recovery to proceed without this database.

I've tried searching for KB articles on this and mostly what I get back are
articles referencing Exchange. These errors pop-up about every 30 minutes in
the event log.

Any references to a KB article that discusses this would be greatly
appreciated.
