    RE: XP SP2 Windows Update Error 0x8024001E

    I too am having trouble with auto updates. Same error as above and cannot
    start update service tried everything on MS site to no avail. All worked
    well last week after having to reformat hard disk after Norton Internet
    sercurity disabled my computer. And yes they are all legit copies of the
    software. I am ready to turf the damn computers out the window. Sick of
    being system admin when I get home from work

    Any help with the above error code would be greatly appreciated.

    Did you notice that there is a second page to the thread that
    Jim Riverman pointed out to the OP? (over a year ago!)

    http://support.microsoft.com/newsgro...oc=NEWSGROUPLN


    Please refer to the solutions from both pages in the thread so we know
    what you have tried. In addition you could be getting significant symptoms
    from the suggested resolutions themselves (e.g. error messages for
    regsvr32 commands, for one) so it is very useful to report all your observations
    when you try these resolutions. Remember, your words have to substitute
    for what our eyes might notice.


    Good luck

    I recently started having the same problem for whatever reason & for all
    those who replied to the original post by booksearcher all your links for
    solutions do NOT work -- I have in the mean time turned on my automatic
    updates BUT, who knows if, that will work if, I can't do it manually ---- if,
    someone truly does have any kind of solution would you PLEASE repost - as, I
    said the reply links NO longer work -- ALSO, I heard of another thing to try
    my going to START/ RUN typing in services.msn & enter the making sure the
    updates selection was on automatic & running - mine was on automatic BUT, was
    NOT running & when I tried to restart the program I get an error ----
    perhaps there is another solution if, there is anyone who knows a direct link
    I can click to download SERVICE PACK 3 the latest for XP - if, i can download
    this directly it might perhaps fix the problem

    If the error message that appeared when you attempted to start the
    updating service was 1058, then either the system is infected with
    malware, Vundo/Virtumonde, or, at worst, a combination of them.
    Using Internet Explorer, see if the system can be scanned here:
    http://onecare.live.com/site/en-us/center/howsafe.htm

    If no malware is resident, than see these MSKBs:

    "Could not start the Remote Procedure Call (RPC) Service. Error 1058"
    error message when you manually start the Remote Procedure Call service
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/838428

    You cannot manually start the Automatic Updates service and you receive
    an "Error 1058" error message on a computer that is running Windows XP
    or Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/896224

    IF malware is present, than suggest you post to a reputable anti-malware
    forum for assistance in getting the system cleaned up:
