i have been having problems with windows update for a few weeks. sometimes it
works and sometimes it doesnt.
i keep getting this error code. I am in safe mode w/ networking, can/should
i update in safe mode? why is microsoft having so many problems when so many
people rely on them?

Hi greeneyedlady916,

Error code 0x8007043C = ERROR_NOT_SAFEBOOT_SERVICE

Windows Update requires a service which is not available in Safe Mode. Do
you experience any problems when you try to update while in Normal mode?
