Windows XP wont run windows update

I had a problem where Windows XP would not run windows updates on a new install of Windows XP in a VMWare virtual machine.

I tried several methods to get it to work including registering windows update in the registry, as well as installing SP2 and SP3. Nothing worked until I tried this:

That worked. Now windows update is working fine..

HHI Computer Guys found this little tidbit. Hope it helps somebody else out.
