Integration Components Setup Error: An error has occurred: Internal Error
You try to install the Hyper-V Integration Services (Drivers) in a VM with Windows 2003 and you get the following error:
“An error has occurred: Internal Error“
No errors in the event log we decided to start by installing the latest updates for that VM. Unfortunately not all updates were able to install properly, in fact most of the updates were failing to install as well…
Ok, Back to the Integration Components setup, it was time to check the log. Under %Windir% directory we check the installation log “vmguest.log”:

After identifying which component fail, we proceed to the respective log “Wdf01007Inst.log” under the same directory “%WinDir%”. Inside this log, between other errors, we found this one:
“Failed to copy spupdsvc.exe“
So we decided to analyze the “%Windir%System32 spupdsvc.exe“. After checking the ” spupdsvc.exe” we discover that “spupdsvc.exe” did not appear to be a original Microsoft exe file, we were able to confirm this checking the “spupdsvc.exe” properties and its digital signature which didn’t exist at all.
Solution:
The Solution was to delete the “spupdsvc.exe”, run a Malware remover tool in the system (this may be need as the antivirus may not be able to detect the malware or remove it), then copy the “spupdsvc.exe” from a healthy system to the problematic one.
After this the Integration components were successfully installed and the updates that were also ALL installed successfully.
Also what worked for me:
From Device manager removed all unknown device, then run windows update, reboot the run start the intgration install again.
If this server is migrated from VMWare then make sure vmware tool is uninstalled.
