Some customers attempting to deploy the first upgrade for Windows 7 have hit a bit of a problem, namely failed installations with the following error codes: 0x8004a029 or 0x80004005 - E_FAIL.
The Redmond company confirmed the issues and indicated that it’s associated to Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (SP1) RTM upgrade scenarios.
According to the software giant, customers can either get 0x8004a029 or 0x80004005 - E_FAIL, but not both of the messages, although they are designed to point to the same glitch.
