I trust you have managed to resolve the problem then?

Try this script it might fix your problem. I use this script wih a custom app to actually force "PUSH" updates along side WSUS server. So from a click of a button I can update a bunch of servers at once.

Great find, thanks for sharing

Hi guys have some information to share with you hope it resolves the issue

what i understand Rickardo is getting the following error

Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x80070643: Update name and KB number

This issue may occur if the Office Source Engine service (Ose.exe) startup type is set to Disabled. By default, the Office Source Engine service startup type is set to Manual. Microsoft Windows Installer uses a custom action to start the Office Source Engine service. However, Windows Installer cannot start the Office Source Engine service if the Office Source Engine service is disabled

Try the following:
1. Determine the status of the Office Source Engine service. To do this, follow these steps: a. Click Start, click Run, type services.msc , and then click OK.
b. In the list of services, double-click Office Source Engine.
c. View the option that appears in the Startup type list.

2. If the startup type is set to Disabled, change the startup type to Manual.

Hope this resolves the issue.

thanks dwyane...but that didnt work..all the downloads failed to install
