When I go the windows update page nothing happens. The page loads and then
just sits there and says "checking for windows update. I have installed sp2
with a cd just today but this didn't help. The "view installation history,
Install Updates" on the left side of the page are both greyed out. Any help
would be appreciated

When searching for available updates on the Windows Update site, you see the
0x8007043B error
This error may occur if the WUAUSERV and BITS services are not configured properly in
the registry.

or

Try registering the following:

Click Start, select Run and type (pressing enter after each one and wait for the
success message):

regsvr32 wuapi.dll
regsvr32 wuaueng.dll
regsvr32 atl.dll
regsvr32 wucltui.dll
regsvr32 wups.dll


or if there is still a problem getting the Update site, try the next bit:-

Click Start, select Run and type (pressing enter after each one and wait for the
success message):

net.exe stop wuauserv
Press Ok

Repeat for the following:
regsvr32 wuapi.dll
regsvr32 wups.dll
regsvr32 wuaueng.dll
regsvr32 wucltui.dll
regsvr32 msxml3.dll
net.exe start wuauserv

Press enter after each one and wait for the success message
 
Thanks for solving my problem with Windows Update. I used option two in your
reply. Thanks again
