Update config keeps repeating, error code not on Microsoft site

[Jellenu]

Hi
Vista keeps updating and configuring and rebooting all the time.
It doesn't succeed, and the error code 80071A2C is nowhere to be found at Microsoft support nor Google.
I've uninstalled AVG, switched off administrator settings etc, but it still doesn't work.

What can I do now?

Thanks,

Jelle

play around in safe mode.
turn off automatic update checking
can you roll back or remove some of the updates?

Hi Diroga,

Thanks for your help.

What should I do in safe mode?
I can turn off the automatic updating, but the installatiion that fails will have to be done sooner or later.
Why is the error code 80071A2C nowhere to be found?
I will try if it helps to remove some of the updates.
