I have downloaded the recent Microsoft updates and all but one installed successfully. The failing update was: Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1 Security Update for Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2008 R2 (KB953297);
with an error code of 0x643.
We tried several times to install it and it keeps failing. It was originally the 3rd update in the list to install. After failing the first time, it was the only one we were trying to install. We tried it after the restart required for the other updates.

Our site was having the same issue for 100+ computers using Windows Update Server. All were XP or 2003. We resolved it by doing the following via a script:
Apparently KB974417 needs to be installed before KB976569
This worked for me as well. Thanks Brainstormer!
Hi, I also had a major problem installing KB982536 (MS .NET Framework 3.5 Sp1, Windows Vista Sp2, Windows Server 2008). I tried uninstalling all .NET programs, rebooted and reinstalled .NET 3.5 and .NET Framework 4.0, rebooted and still wouldn't install. Used Cleanup Utility Tool. Didn't help. Eventually I turned-off UAC, rebooted and successfully installed the update. Turned UAC back on and rebooted. Hope this info is helpful.

I'm also having problems installing the recent Windows update as I keep getting error Ox643 telling me that Microsoft .NET Framework (KB979906) wont install. Seems there's a problem here as I see I'm not the only one.
