Is the Vista SP1 Jan refresh no longer available?

For the past two days the update sticks at 19% then fails. Is this refresh
no longer available?

P.S. The update fails with error : Code 80070002

I don't know what that error code means, but do you turn off your antivirus
program?

Thanks David. I followed the directions from Windows Help, and deleted the
files and folders under SoftwareDistribution/DataStore and
SoftwareDistribution/Download. But then it stopped at 6% and then said I
didn't need the update. Strange, huh?

You do realize that Vista SP1 is still evaluation software still under
testing, right?

Yes. I just expected it to install.

And it didn't even finish downloading. (left that part off)

FYI: It seems there is a known issue with SP1 Refresh for some users that
will not allow install, according to MS there is a "fix" in the pipeline and
there isn't anything you can do (short of a repair install of Vista) to fix
the problem. So, you need to wait.

I also cannot get the SP1 refresh even though I have downloaded the
necessary 3 downloads before hand, and right clicked the cmd file.

"Vista SP1 is still evaluation software still under
>> testing, right?"

And very good. At least that is one user's experience.
