Here's 3 resolutions for Vista/Windows 7: 1) Temporarily disable User Account Control. Install the updates, restart, reenable User Account Control. 2) Install the updates with the Office CD already inserted into the CD/DVD drive. 3) Open Windows Update in the Control Panel. Click the 'View updates history' link. Write down the KB number of the *failed* updates. Next, go here: Microsoft Download Center http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/Search.aspx?
