RE: Error 0x80070670 when updating office 2003
The reason this is happening is probably that Windows "Office Source Engine"
Service has been disabled. Suggest you right click on My Computer, open up
"Services" under "Services and Applications" and double click on the "Office
Source Engine".
1. Set the Startup type to be Automatic
2. Manually start the service.
Unless I'm very much mistaken, you will find that any current and future
office updates will install without any further complaint.
Reinitialising/Reinstalling Office as others have suggested will fix the
problem, but it's a bit of a sledgehammer solution to a minor configuration
error.

Catalyst,
Your solution worked for me. I noticed that the 949 didn't have a string
value so I added. After I made that change, all 13 updates completed
successfully. You have no idea how frustrating this was. I uninstalled,
reinstalled, repaired, etc the office 2003 install and no luck. I was getting
ready to reformat and reinstall windows.
