Windows Update error 80070103

HP 530 Notebook PC, cannot install driver update for inbuilt Intel
PRO/Wireless 3945ABG adaptor, either through Windows Update or via HP
SP38888. Windows Update gives a code while direct update just says driver
installation was not successful.
This is an update that is flagged as necessary. The wireless adaptor is not
functioning properly.

Any ideas, anyone?

Have you tried getting the driver direct from the Manufacturer's site?

Re: Windows Update error 80070103

Gerry,

I have already tried this driver (SP38888) and it doesn't work either.

Thanks for trying to help.

Re: Windows Update error 80070103

Bill

Did you follow these instructions exactly as they are written?

1. Download the SoftPaq .EXE file to a directory
on your hard drive.

2. Execute the downloaded file and follow the
on-screen instructions.

NOTE: After the files are unpacked, the Setup program
runs automatically. If the setup program (isetup.exe)
needs to be run manually, look for it in the
download directory.

Saving to disk takes longer than to directly download and install. You could
try installing in Safe Mode. Might be something there.

The note suggests installation is not always straightforward.

You said this earlier "The wireless adaptor is not functioning properly." In
what way is it malfunctioning?
