Error code 8024002D

Windows Update tried to download Office XP service pac 3. But the following
error accoured 8024002D

I cannot find out what this error is and how to complete the download.

I have noticed Windows Update icon at the bottom right side of my laptop
continues to advise me I have 1 update available, which is the service pac 3.

How do I download this service pac 3 and remove the Windows Update icon at
the bottom right side of the laptop?

Error Code: 0x8024002D
means - a full-file patch failed because the source was required

Try installing the patch with the Office CD in the installation drive or in the
alternative you can download the full file and see if that'll work or if none of the above
work, then repair the Office installation.
