Hi:
Here is the link to the wireless card driver you need for that ID:
This package contains Broadcom Wireless LAN driver and is required to enable the integrated Broadcom Wireless LAN adapter in supported notebook models running a supported operating system. This package also contains the Broadcom Wireless Utility application and IHV Extensions that add support for Cisco Compatible Extensions.

See if installing both of these updates resolves the windows update issue...install and restart the PC...
