Re: Update won't even download

Two possibilities -

0x8007f0cc - STATUS_KERNEL_NONSTD
The core system file (kernel) used to start this computer is not a Microsoft
Windows file. The Service Pack will not be installed.
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=327101
Error message: Windows has detected that one or more protected core system files
(kernel) on your computer have been modified

or

Error Code:8007F0CC happens if you have changed your "boot.ini" file.

Have you created a custom boot screen, or have you used software such as Style
XP to alter your boot screen?

If you are using Style XP upgrade to the latest version. If you altered the
"boot.ini" file yourself and made a custom boot screen, just replace "boot.ini"
with the backup you made before editing it.

HOW TO: Edit the Boot.ini File in Windows XP
