    Error Code: 0x80004002

    I keep getting this error while attempting to install first batch of updates
    on fresh OS Install on my Dell Inspiron 1100. I used the Dell Reinstallation
    CD which ships with XP Pro SP1.

    I followed the recommendations given Bill Cart below and retried but
    evidently I'm facing a different issue.

    Help, anyone.

    after installing SP2 I received the 0x80244018 error code. So I
    tried the proxycfg -d thing as well as stopping the Automatic Updates Service
    - then deleting the contents of C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\Download -
    then restarting the Automatic Updates Service and then ran WU again. This
    time it ran successfully and I got all updates.

    Error Code: 0x80004002

    Recently had to Repair Windows XP: my SP2 version is now SP1.

    Every time I try to update the system I get get update failure notices and
    the following message: Error Code: 0x80004002 - this error code applies to
    every update I've tried since repairing windows.

    Searching through the Knowledge Base I couldn't find anything relating this
    error to Windows Update. Anyone got any ideas? I'm starting to get pretty
    frustrated...

    Thanks in advance.

    Try the following:-

    Click Start, select run and type the following (pressing okay after each one):-

    net.exe stop wuauserv

    regsvr32.exe wuapi.dll
    regsvr32.exe wups.dll
    regsvr32.exe wuaueng.dll
    regsvr32.exe wucltui.dll
    regsvr32.exe MSXML3.dll

    net.exe start wuauserv

    Try WU again.

    If that hasn't helped, then you may have to reinstall the Windows Update Agent.

    A new version of the Windows Update Agent is available
