I still couldnt receive any windows update on SP1. After reading thru the thread why there is no SP1 available, I suspect it is the Sigma Tel Audio in my lappy that is not compliment. So I am thinking where can I install the latest driver for this hardware, tried doing it thru device manager but it stated that I have the latest software...

I couldn't find a newsgroup that was English Windows updates, so since most updates involve security issues I guess I will vent here. This is the second time in about two months that my Vista Home Premium 32 bit desktop computer has been stuck in Update hell. It was perfectly fine all day yesterday and then when I started it this morning, it went to the green and blue screen "Configuring Updates State 3 of 3 0% complete Do not turn off your computer" and then it restarts, only to return to that exact same screen.
After watching it do that at least six times I finally turned it off. It took me about 14 more tries to get to start in a "safe" or "repair" mode which it is in now, still being "repaired." That was two hours ago. When this happened last time it was at the exact same point with the 3 of 3 screen. It seems that the only solution to this would be to turn off automatice updates and check for them and install them when my computer is not coming out of a cold start. Has anyone else had this problem and does anyone have a better solution to avoid this than turning off automatice updates?
I had windows XP pro and i bought windows vista home premium upgrade, when i went to install it it said that i couldn't upgrade it. So i followed directions on how to do a custom clean install, where you install vista without typing in the product key and without getting updates then you pick what OS you have and do the custom installation, then you install again (2nd time) and choose upgrade instead of custom and go through the process again.
The problem is after installing it the first time, I couldn't connect to the internet, so I couldn't install it a second time. I have an ASUS PQ5 PRo motherboard and when i start up there is this thing called express gate, in express gate I can use the internet but not when i enter Vista. When I put in the PQ5 Pro DVD vista says it can't open it. Also my XP PRO may have been 64bit, and now I am on Vista32 bit and the disck wont work.
I think the internet is a driver problem, if i go to the asus website on a diff computer and get the ASUS drivers put them on a USB and then open them on vista should this work? WHat drivers do I need? Just the LAN one? Also if the Asus DVD wouldnt start up will that mean that I wont be able to open the drivers on the flash drive too?
when opening Windows Live Mail on my laptop it started diectly receiving mail. a few days ago, I noticed that i couldn't send and receive anymore. Windows Live mail is trying to connect.... constantly. After 60 seconds a little window appears with: The server SMTP did't react for 60 seconds. Do you want to wait for teh server another 60 seconds?

I have been using Sophos for a number of years. I recently have not been able to get it to auto update. When I dug into it a bit, I found I couldn't access the update server from a web browser. In fact, I can't even reach the main Sophos site. I can't believe they are down. I can reach many other web sites I've tried, including this one. Could I have something messed up in my settings somewhere that would prevent access to this one web site? I am using Sophos 7.6.16 Antivirus as well as Sophos firewall 1.5.4 R2

I had to replace my motherboard because of a power surge (I've now bought protection - better late than never!) and when I tried to boot up my computer I got a message saying that Vista couldn't boot but it would try and repair the installation. In the event it couldn't and it asked for the installation disc. Vista installed OK but it would no longer accept the Product Key saying that my disc was for an upgrade (correct) and not for a clean installation. ObviouI now appear to have two expensive choices:
1 To buy a new key
or
2 To ask for Windows technical support which I have to pay for
When Vista had a problem and I couldn't boot, I had to backup my mail by copying the entire folder from the hidden AppDataLocalMicrosoft folder. Then I had to reinstall Vista, and I copied the Windows Mail folder to the same location on the new install. Windows Mail works fine except when I click Send/Receive or press Ctrl+M. The Task/Errors screen pops up, and it says "Some errors occurred while processing the requested tasks. Plese review the list of errors below for more details" ONly there are no errors listed in the errors window, it's blank. I can Receive All, or Send All, and the program sends and receives on startup as usual.

I'd stuck with my Pentium4 on XP Pro. Well, actually did not have much choice as the old beast died a death. Mobo trashed! I got the message from M$ that HotMail would no longer be supported on Outlook, and have been trying to install Live Mail. I keep getting the error "Sorry, we couldn't install these programs". How helpful is THAT! I finally tracked down a standalone install kit for WLM and now have messenger installed and (eventually) working.
That is the message I get from the icon in my Vista tray. When I try to manually check for Windows Updates I get the message that I need to "first install an update for Windows Update". When I try to install that update for Windows Update, I get error code 80070643. There is a lot written about Windows Update error 80070643 having specifically to do with restarting the Office Source Engine for Microsoft Office 2003. HOWEVER, I do not have Microsoft Office 2003 installed on my system and this is not my issue! I am quite fearful at this point that I am vulnerable to all sorts of attacks considering that I haven't updated Vista for about 6 months now. This is not good.

Microsoft Update was first released a few years ago for Windows XP and Server 2003 as a great way to update all of your Microsoft software installed on your PC. Not only would it update Windows, but it would also update Microsoft Office. Are you a Microsoft Outlook user? If so, Microsoft Update would even download updated junk mail signatures when they are released.
In Windows Vista the new Windows Update application is no longer web-based. Microsoft has built-in the old Microsoft Update functionality into the new interface but you need to turn it on before you can use it. Follow these steps to turn on updates for other Microsoft applications: ...
I am updating my computer and I thought it was finish but my computer restarts and I encountered the death blue screen. I can't switch into safe mode, safe mode with networking, safe mode with Command Prompt and Last Known good configuration. I don't know how to solve this problem because I can't get into any of the modes and even I inserted the installation disc I can't still see any repair computer or what. It will just turn to blank screen with space at the upper left after if i will insert the installation disc.

Just configured Windows Mail on my new laptop, and I can send and receive messages okay, but I cannot receive attachments. There isn't even any indication that the attachment was blocked; it's just not there. Also, I cannot receive HTML formatted e-mails (I get a news headline service); I can just see the hyperlinks. I have unchecked (cleared) the box that blocks .exe files, etc, but I'm only trying to send Word docs (to myself at this point to see if everything is working).
