Hello violator009
In most cases, these messages are temporary or short-lived issues that are
caused by very slight interruptions in communications between the computer
that is being updated and the Windows update servers. These issues are
generally self-healing. please exit the Windows Update

Do a manual visit to Windows Update with Internet Explorer.
[ Start > Windows Update or open IE, click Tools, Windows Update ]
When the installations fail, close IE.


This is the research that i found on the subject,i hope this helps. Also the manual update may be a work around until the issue clears up.

i think it was an activex i forgot to install, i installed it, now windows can search for updates but when i tried to install them i get a system shutdown

Have you tried to manually update,just by going to the update center?

no but ill try it, there are over 60 updates, ill also attach the minidump folder so u can look at it..

edit seems the file is too large to attach...

Hello violator009,did you your windows update to work?
