Just recently every time I try to start up Windows 7 I get a 'Windows is configuring updates 0%' message – for about 10 minutes then all of a sudden I get a failure error and Windows is reverting any changes.
This has been going on a continuous rate. I checked the update history and theres a number of failed updates – an example of one is as below:
