error code 0x80004005

I just installed xp professional last night from windows ME and a short time
later when I was updating my computer at microsoft update, it froze up. I
shut it down, started it back up and when it asked me for my password to log
in, I got a message saying:"A problem is preventing Windows from accurately
checking the license for this computer. Error Code: 0x80004005."

I can't get into my desktop at all and all my email is in there under
outlook express. That is why I don't want to try and reinstall windows xp.

Any ideas on how to qick fix this?

Thank you in advance

I suggest you ask on an XP or ME newsgroup - this group is for
discussions about the .NET framework.

Hi, all.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
