kb957097 error wrong version of windows???

This update won't install on Vista for me, I get an error telling me that
this update is for a different version of Windows. I tried shutting down my
anti-virus/firewall and get the same error. This is on Vista Home Premium 32
bit just recently installed. How can I fix this? thanks

"the version of windows you have installed does not match the update you are
trying to install"

that's the error. 800B0100 is the error code. Can't find anything on the
error searching Help & Support. Is there any generic Windows update fix,
deleting files or something that I can do?
