Hi Hooterman23,

· Which version of windows are you using?

This problem occurs when Windows Installer encounters an error. Error code 0x80070643 and error code 0x643 are provided by Windows Installer. These error codes are generic errors that basically state that an error was encountered by Windows Installer.

You may try to download and install the latest windows installer on your computer and then try to install the updates.
