Re: Error code 0x80040154 Fix?

From reading around, some people have had success with using Windows
Update to get the latest updates and there is some interaction between
WU and WD where this issue is resolved.

....wouldn't hurt.

1.-Try running sfc /scannow to see if that resolves the issue,
also,
2.- consider going to the secu?ity portal.



1.- Run System File Checker.
press enter and let it scan your system, if any files are damaged or
missing
they will be replaced using the files on the windows disk

SFC: http://www.updatexp.com/scannow-sfc.html

In Vista run it from an elevated command prompt.
Right click command on start and run as administrator.

2.- Save it, close all windows/programs open, and run as admin.

Go here: Microsoft Malware Protection Center
<http://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/default.aspx>
Click the link in the right frame under ' Latest Definition Updates '
for either the x86 [32 bit] or x64 [64 bit] edition of Windows
installed.
*Save* the definitions that will now download.

Once the download completes close all open programs and browsers.
Now run the downloaded file [ if the edition of Windows is Vista,
then
*right* click it and choose 'Run as administrator'.

Follow the prompts to allow it to run ].

Did that get the latest defs installed ?
