I tried the setautoreset solution and also received an error message that the
'file or directory is corrupted.."

Is there a recommendation on what to try next?

Thanks!

I solved the error in this way:

1)Boot Vista from DVD,
2)Click to rapair installation (or something like that)
2)Run prompt command
3)start chkdsk /f in the volume where is installed Vista
Then restart Vista from HD and try to update

It works form me!

Thanks. I had tried chkdsk /r from my normal login with no luck. I put the
Driver/Utilities Dell CD in the system and booted from it by hitting F12. I
ran a full disk diagnostics - everything passed (it took half a day to run
btw). Upon reboot - I missed hitting F12 quick enough and Windows started to
load - so I thought I could just turn off the system and retry. No luck - it
said Windows had problems and was going to recover and something about if the
disk was involved - it could take a long time. So - I let it recover and
went shopping. When it finished - I successfully ran the fsutil command
mentioned in the thread here and then successfully ran the windows update.
Thanks to all who have helped.

Now if I could figure out why the system still runs slow I'll be in great
shape.

Thank you so much Ferra1980...wherever/whoever you are, you have great skill
in concise technical writing and I wish you the utmost success in computing
with vista!

=)

....just one thing...when you boot vista from the disk, then choose to
"repair installation" then use the cmd program to change directory to C:\ (cd
C:\) (assuming C:\ is the drive where vista is installed)...before "chkdsk
/f" will start to run it will ask you to release all handles currently
pointing to this disk...i have found that doing this seems to leave
everything okay!

Thank you again!
