Hi Shawn,

Try the following:

Suggestion 1:
Register the following MSXML files:

1. Click on Start, Run and type
"REGSVR32 MSXML.DLL"(w/o quotes)
You should see a popup message that this process succeeded.

2. Click on Start, Run and type
"REGSVR32 MSXML2.DLL" (w/o the quotes)
You should see a popup message that this process succeeded.

3. Click on Start, Run and type
"REGSVR32 MSXML3.DLL" (w/o the quotes)
You should see a popup message that this process succeeded.

Try Windows Update again. If error persists try:


Suggestion 2:
This error can be the result of a file mismatch or corruption of the
MSXML.DLL files. Try upgrading your XML parser to the most recent version,
which is currently MSXML Parser 3.0 Service Pack 4 Release.
You can download the latest parser from this location:

Hello Shawn,

Try using the following commands to register these DLLs....

regsvr32 msxml.dll
regsvr32 msxmlr.dll

Then try the update site again.

NOTE: You have too many digits. It's 0x800A0007, not 0x800A00007. It's
always an eight digit number.
