microsoft update does not work

[lievenme]

I am a vista home premium user. a week or two ago I had an invalid office2003
version, due to an error of my school. Now I installed a valid
KIS-contract-version, validated by ms-genuine.

However, I don't receive SP3 and other necessary updates.

When I run microsoft update from the V6-website, I get
http://update.microsoft.com/microsoftupdate/v6/vistadefault.aspx?ln=nl
followed by a "windows update"-window saying me that "windows is up-to-date".

As I installed the software on a desktop (xp home) too, I remarked that on
that pc, office update worked normally.

Can you please help me with my vista laptop? Tanks a lot!

Hmm... have you tried doing the Office updates via
http://office.microsoft.com? (When you visit this link, pick Downloads and
then on the left is a link for Office Update. You might have to allow some
controls to install, but this is a alternative if you are having problems
with the main Windows/Microsoft update website.)

Yes I tried, and downloaded sp3.
installing it, I got the message that it was allready installed....
si I do not know, but I continue on the other thread...

thank you

Did you remove the invalid version and all of it's dependencies before installing
the present version ? Was the previous version updated with all the available
updates including SP3
