Hello, have you tried:

Open the Windows Update troubleshooter by clicking the Start button

, and then clicking Control Panel. In the search box, type troubleshooter, and then click Troubleshooting. Under System and Security, click Fix problems with Windows Update.

Its from this link: Windows Update error 800705b4

I know its a different error code but its worth a try.

Yes I tried that, it did not work either, updates still fail. I can install the optional updates fine, just not these important ones.

Right click Computer. If it is windows 7 Service Pack 1 then it will say.

It doesn't appear to be/have service pack 1.

Install it and then try the updates again. Do a backup before hand though.

How do I reset Windows Update components?

None of them worked. The SFC scan screwed up my pc so I had to go back to a restore point.

I'm having the same issue when installing KB2586448 (IE 9 Security Update) however I'm getting Error Code 8007000D. I've tried Windows Update Troubleshooter, installing the Hotfix (Windows6.1-KB947821-v14-x64.msu) and also ran MS Fixit. All of them said the issue was resolved but after reboot, the update still fails. Didn't want to hijack your thread, just wanted to let you know you're not the only one having issues with Windows Update at the moment.
