It looks like you don't have enough HDD Space to install the Sp1. How much free space do you have?

Tuesday, December 14, 2010 4:17 PMcan you run the exe with the /X:C:\temp parameter to extract the setup to C:\temp? Now run the setup in C:\temp. Does it work?

Tuesday, December 14, 2010 4:59 PMI was installing from Windows Update, but will instead download the .exe and try as you suggest. Will update later today.

I have tried the command windows6.1-KB976932-X86.exe /X:C:\temp and windows6.1-KB976932-X86.exe /XC:\temp and windows6.1-KB976932-X86.exe without any parameters and all result in the same error dialog showing "Data not valid".
The CBS.log file (see link below) seems to indicate a checksum error. I have downloaded the installation file three times with the same result.

Have you downloaded the ISO?

The exe is damaged.
Here are the hash values of the ISO:

Managed to download a good version of the .exe. Running the SP1 installation from the C:\temp directoy results in the same problem I originally described.
Thanks for the suggestions so far. Any others?

Can you run the System Update Readiness Tool [1] and sfc /scannow? next try to install the Sp1 again and upload all files from the folder C:\Windows\logs\CBS if it fails again.

Re-ran the Readiness Tool, ran sfc /scannow, rebooted and re-tried the install (from the temp folder as suggested earlier).
Still no better I'm afraid. Full zipped CBS folder at http://cid-5dcbc9f00b8b941b.skydrive.live.com/redir.aspx?resid=5DCBC9F00B8B941B!136

wbemErr Failed = 0x80041001
The SDK documentation for WbemErrorEnum lists names (all beginning with "wbemErr"), decimal and hexadecimal values, and descriptions of different error constants that WMI can return to scripts.
Have you disabled the WMI service?

Hi Warren,
From an administrator command prompt, can you run "wbemtest" and then try to Connect to the default namespace (root\cimv2)?
Mark [MSFT]

Tuesday, December 21, 2010 4:09 AM
Thanks Mark. When I try to connect to the default namespace I get a "Generic Error" with the same error code as the service pack (0x80041001).

Warren,
Can you share any errors you find in C:\Windows\System32\wbem\Logs? It may be a good idea to delete the log files there first then try the SP install so that the only error is from the SP installation.

I haven't re-run the SP, but there is only one file in that directory WMIC.LOG which contains the following lines:

After deleting WMIC.LOG, re-trying the SP installation and getting the error, the C:\Windows\System32\wbem\Logs directory is empty (no files).

Hi Warren,
Can you please try the command winmgmt /verifyrepository from an elevated commad prompt(cmd - run as administrator)? If you get WMI repository is Inconsistent please try the following to reinstall WMI.
- net stop winmgmt
- ren %windir%\System32\Wbem\Repository Repository_backup
- net start winmgmt
- Open Command Prompt (cmd) with elevated credentials (administrator)
- Run winmgmt /salvagerepository to attempt to rebuild the repository
- Register WMI components
cd /d %windir%\system32\wbem
for /f %%s in ('dir /b *.dll') do regsvr32 /s %%s
for /f %%s in ('dir /b *.mof *.mfl') do mofcomp %%s
wmiprvse /regserver
winmgmt /regserver
7.Reboot machine
After that, please test WMI connection with wbemtest as follows.-
Run %SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem\WbemTest.exe
-
Click Connect
-
Click Connect
If you still hit connectivity error, you may want to try comprehensive rebuild belowrundll32.exe setupapi,InstallHinfSection WBEM 132 %windir%\inf\wbemoc.inf
Above command will ask for your Windows 2008 R2 installation disc
Hope it helps.
Thanks,
Yuan

Thanks for the help.
winmgmt /verifyrepository fails with a "generic failure" 0x80041001.
winmgmt /salvagereport fails with a "generic failure" 0x80041001 (after the steps listed above)
The rundll32.exe command refuses to run with a dialog popping up immediately that says 'Installation Failed.'
Any other ideas?
-
Tuesday, January 25, 2011 8:40 PM
Thanks for the updates. Did the command "net start winmgmt" return any error? Can you check whether WMI service is running?
Meanwhile can you please try the following?
-
Click Start, click Run, type wmimgmt.msc, and then click OK.
-
Right-click WMI Control (Local), and then click Properties.
-
Check whether the information about the operating system and the version of WMI is correct on the General tab
-

Friday, January 28, 2011 6:57 AM
No error on net start winmgmt - no problem starting the WMI service.
On the general tab of the WMI mgmt console it has the following message:
Failed to connect to <local computer>
because "WMI: Generic error" -

Hi,
If the above steps do not work on your computer, you will have to reinstall Windows to solve the problem.
Please refer to the "Reinstalling Windows 7" section at http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Installing-and-reinstalling-Windows-7. In order to avoid any data loss, please backup your data before taking the reinstallation.
Regards,
Yuan
