Re: Can't install v6 ms update KB898461 - error 0x8007F001.



Good day to all,

I've been having the same problem described here and I guess some people
have been having it.
Before getting everyone high on hope, let me tell you, I still haven't found
a solution.

So, yes, it seems like the problem comes from something in windows telling
the update software that the system's in chinese but what?

In my case, I guess the problem came the day I installed a program to learn
chinese, which was very bad (can't remember the name, though, something like
learnchinese I think), uninstalled it and kaboom, off it went.

Another symptom I've observed is that, and I'd like some people with the
update pb to check this, when I try to use the arial ms unicode font, all
characters disappear. The font is invisible. In some programs, like audacity
or outlook express, this renders some features (or alert/inbox configs for OE
express) invisible and thus useless.
Other invisible fonts are Nsimsun and nsimsun - 1830.

I've already tried various combinations of advices given here or on the
french section on which I had a long discussion about that with a french mvp,
without success. BUT, one person with the same problem also had uninstalled a
chinese learning software. So, my guess is that it has something to do with a
key somewhere in the registry which fails to link some unicode. I know, I'm
vague, but
1 - I don't want to re-install everything from scratch, even if I think this
is the only solution
2 - I think this is a nice challenge.

The arial unicode font is still in the /fonts folder and clicking on it
makes it appear in good shape, everything seems ok. The only thing that could
keep the system from using it correctly should be found, i think, in the
registry in either a font or fontlink key.

Anyone up to this?

Update center still trying to install on my system that kb 898461 before all
other updates - so that very annoying.
I already reinstalled update agent, windows installer and even deinstalled
additional langueges - no reaction. No viruses, deffender working, brandmauer
running, security levels ok and i'am not idiot. It is strange that i can
download any updates manually but not in auto mode. XP PRO of course is
genuine validated. What is wrong microsoft? Who is guilty? Bill G.? Bush?
Monica Levinsky? All gang together?
