I have tried multiple times to install Vista SP 1 through Update and from the
web site. Neither approach has worked. My latest attempt gave me an error
code, 0x8000405 and I can't find any understandable information on this
problem that pertains to Vista SP 1. Does antone out there have a secret to
this frustrating problem? This should not be as difficult as it has been!

There is plenty of information available on SP1. You may want to start here:

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/windowsvista/sp1.mspx

Note, especially, the link toward the bottom of the page "Free help updating
with SP1".

If you wish to use the Microsoft public newsgroups effectively, you need to
find a group relevant to your question.

As you appear to be using a web interface...

http://www.microsoft.com/communitie...spx?guid=1080912A-26C5-7040-AFDD-2224A4FEB3EA

Select your language from the Tree View on the left, then scroll down to
Windows. In the Windows category, open the category for Windows Vista.
There, select an appropriate group.
