I have windows vista 32 bit and can't search for new updates,
it keeps showing an error code.
I have already searched alot of solutions on this site with no luck.
The history of previous installed updates is gone, and it stated that the
last update was installed in april 2009.

I already tried renaming softwaredistribution but that changed nothing,
also installed KB967723 but said it isn't for my system.
System update readyness KB947821 didn't change anything either.
Tried sfc/scannow but said there was nothing wrong

don't have an windows dvd anymore to upgrade or re-install

this is really annoying, because my pc is slowing down alot.
Internet pages keep freezing and restarting and such and i think it's
because my updates aren't installed.

Any help?

I recommend downloading and installing
MalwareBytes' Antimalware (MBAM) and
SUPERAntiSpywaяe (SAS).

Do a full scan with MalwaяeBytes' and
SUPERAntiSpywaяe.

<http://www.superantispyware.com/>

Reboot

<http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php>

Reboot

Both free versions of MBAM and SAS are on-demand scanners and offer no
'real-time' protection. Keep them installed and use them as
'second-opinion' scanner which is purposely (by design) recommended by
their respective authoяs.

The slowdown is probably something else, but for the 80070490 errors, open
the CBS.log in c:\windows\logs\cbs\
Look for "Failed to resolve Package" errors.
I you have some, note down the KB number to see if they are all the same.

Backup the registry key:
HKLM\software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Component Based Servicing
Then search in that location for any keys with the KB number that is
showing up as Failed to Resolve and delete those references.

restart the automatic update service, and then try searching for updates
again.

I have found an KB number in CBS/CheckSur that keeps saying package registry
presence failed.

I'm kinda a noob when it comes to software, sry for the stupid question
maybe but where exactly do i backup the registry key?.
HKLM\software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Component Based Servicing?
