Vista Service Pack 2 32bit won't install (KB948465) / Service pack did not install, Reverting Changes, Do not turn off your computer Code 80004005

I proceeded with the installation of this update witch was the SP2 final Release. but after booting up and going through the 3 step of the process it said it completed 100% and at that point stood there with a revolving circle (small icon) and at the end it came out saying: Service pack did not install, Reverting Changes, Do not turn off your computer. (Das Service Pack wurde nicht Installiert. Änderungen werden rückgängig gemacht. Schalten Sie den Computer nicht aus.)

I also face the problem and after I goole this problem I found it maybe many possiblecause . Thanks to Brady Shea 's reminding, I check my boot manager and found it really has problem. Now I fix it and installed it. Aha, congratulations~~~~
If your type "bcdedit" in command prompt and it says "the boot configuration data store could not be opened. the system can not  find the file specified.", you should use the vista install CD repair the startup. If it says not dectects any problem about startup, you should delete c:\boot directory then repair again.
I'm not sure everyone has the same cause. Here are some valuable resources, if you still can't solve it you should look and have a test.

Good luck!

(edit) - (RESOLVED):

If you haven't read through entire thread, I was using grub boot manager to boot windows/linux. SP2 didn't like this and failed.

Use Bootrec.exe /fixmbr and /fixboot to 'disable'/remove GRUB  or any other non-MS boot manager (see below for link).

----

To add some more info for those who have non-Vista "boot manager" installed, or corruption - this will restore Vista's (if you have DVD handy):


Bootrec/bcdedit use: How to use Bootrec.exe in the Windows Recovery Environment...
^ Make sure you do the backup portion of this as you can easily really goof things up. (e.g. "bcdedit /export C:\BCD_Backup ", etc)

Edit:
Forgot about free (not Open Source, though) EasyBCD: EasyBCD 1.7.2
Haven't used personally but I know a couple ppl who have used this with success.

Moshe -Try searching for the first instance of "0x80004005" or "Failure will not be ignored" etc.. Try to figure out what is is stumbling on in the cbs.log. At this point in my case, I am pretty sure restoring bootsect for Vista will let me install (e.g. removing grub/restoring boot record vista style/installing sp2/reinstalling grub.) (fingers crossed.)

One of my reasons for wanting this was the fix for Explorer in which you keep getting the "View " reset to whatever it decides it likes best (which can vary I have noticed, day to day.) SP2 is suppose to address this bug (I think it's a BagMRU setting for shell in registry?) as well as other annoyances.

Edit:
RE: "BagMRU Issue". Which I might add was not resolved. I have about 1 TB of files/folders on this machine. Needless to say that creates many folder/dir views Vista needs to remember. I knew right away this issue with it remembering VIEW settings on folders was not fixed. Microsoft has even left the incorrect registry items in place after SP2 "upgrade". Detailed here and how to fix: http://thewinforums.com/topic/23106-resolvedremember-folder-settings-finally-works/ This fix worked for a time, but now Vista is up to it's old tricks. Very annoying.
