I have a Dell Inspiron 1520 with Windows Vista. My windows has failed to update since December and displays the error codde 8000FFFF. Does anyone know how i can fix this problem?
Please follow these instructions and see if you can get updates. Please wait for at least 3 minutes because sometimes you need to install ActiveX to get the updates to install.

Welcome to the forums Anna :emotion-21:
Here's a suggestion to try - taken from this Microsoft Technet forums thread on the subject:
1: Open up "Control Panel" and navigate your way to "Programs and Features".
2: Click "View installed updates" on the left hand side.
3: Find the update KB929777 and uninstall it.
4: Attempt to install the update again in Windows Update
5: Once successful, restart your PC.
