Re: Windows update loop - with a new error message - Help!

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

Could be that the .dll is damaged. There should be a backup of it in
WINDOWS\system32\dllcache
Delete the copy in system32 and copy the one in dllcache to the system32 folder. Now see if it will reregister.

I am having the same problem listed in these posts (files required to....etc) I have performed all the steps I could find in these postings as well as other sites and still no joy. However, at one point I was directed to re-install the wuauserv and when I did I got the following message:

"wuauserv.dll was loaded but the dllRegisterServer entry point was not found"

Seems like this might be a good clue although I haven't found anything helpful relating to this message:

Running XP - SP2/IE7/ all attempts to re-register .dlls appeared successful but the problem remains.
