Microsoft Update/Windows Update

I just formatted my C drive on my DImension 2350. Before I formatted the drive it had XP SP 2. Well now it has SP 1 b/c I had the CD i got from Dell when i got my computer. I can't get Microsoft Update to work. When I click on it it will go straight to this message:


[Error number: 0x80245003]

You can try this fix:

Go to Start > Run and type in CMD  [OK]. Then follow the instructions from #2 on.

Try copy/pasteing the lines below in the RUN box, (one line at a time):

net stop wuauserv

rmdir /s /q %windir%\softwaredistribution\wuredir

net start wuauserv
