Yes.Which step did you help?Post 10?It would be strange if you used KB971058 "reset Windows Components" because things contained in post 10 KB971058 do it also....or you didn't choose agresive mode...

Well i tried the FixIt, which didnt really do anything. Then i download the service pack 1 standalone and installed that but i also updated my BITS service. Also BITS was set in my services.msc to Automatic (Delayed Start) so i changed that to just Automatic.

I think you rather mean this->An update is available to fix a Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS) crash on a Windows Vista-based computer
because this hotfix An update is available for Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS) 2.0 for Windows XP impossible to install on Vista (both offered in post 7)
Congratulations and thank you for your info.
