Did the PC in question successfully update in the past ? If so, have you
scanned for malware ? Some malware variants will reset permissions or
damage system files resulting in a failure to install updates/patches.
Start, Run, type
regsvr32 initpki.dll
Enter
If that doesn't resolve the issue, check the WindowsUpdate.log for an
error code associated with the failed update installation. Then go to
the Windows Update (v6) Troubleshooter for a suggested resolution for
that specific error.
