My computer downloads microsoft updates and it looks like its going to do fine but when it goes to install them 99% of them say "failed". When you click on the failed update it says "error code 643" or "error code 646". My computer also locks up regularly now. I wonder if i have malware or something but scans dont show anything. Any advise/help is appreciated.

Hello wgraff,

When you click on the failed update it says "error code 643" or "error code 646".
Error Code 643 Windows Vista Security update .net 1.1

Error code "0x80070646," "646," or "1606" when you try to install Office updates

Do either of those apply?

Best regards.
