Update for AMD Processor gives error 0x80070103. Why?

The update (details below) insists on failing even after I've emptied the
'DataStore' folder in the 'SoftwareDistribution' folder.
What is going on and, more to the point, how can I ensure a successful update?

Hi there,

Only take Drivers for MS hardware from windows update.
If an update is needed because the hardware is not working well ( if it
ain's broke do not try to "FIX" it) go to www.amd.com for an updated driver.

Best regards,
Michel Denie
