    Hi Spliff

    You could try downloading the update directly from here.

    Have you tried to activate your rc?

    View windows update > remove updates. Which you probably tried already. I had a similar problem and I was forced to use system restore. You can also try a roll back with system image. Maybe the Win 7 disc, repair. In any event I wish you luck.

    Run cmd.exe with administrative previlliges (right click on cmd.exe as admin)
    and type

    sfc /scannow

    If sfc command don't help again run cmd.exe with administrative previlliges and type

    slmgr -rearm

    wait untill appear pop-up with succesfully making commands and next reboot

    If it also fail you have to reactive system
    Repair Installation should fix this issue as well
