Error Code: 0x80070005

I get this error code when I try to download the updates. I have tried all
that has been sugested in the threads but nothing seems to work for me. It
keeps telling me that I am running in safe mode and I can't figure that out.
HELLLLPPP.

"TaurArian" that is a nice link. But what no one seems to understand is
that the entire disk is LOCKED, at least in my case. I can not save, run or
modify any files or directories. Further most administrative commands do not
work. Locked out.

Further, i took my drive out of this computer and connected it via USB to a
XP sytem and guess what, the drive cannot be accessed.

I have to say, this disturbs me greatly since I have Windows 7 RC on this
computer. Either there is an extremely nasty trojan out there that can
completely lock a Wun 7 system or there is a severe bug in this OS!!

I hope so: That's where Win7 *beta* is being supported currently.
