KB937287 Update Failing, Even After Manual Install

Nov 30, 2008

Okay, I've heard about this horrible update and how it refuses to work, but I went around searching and found no one with the same problem as I did. So here is what happened:

1. I found it through updating, tried to update it, doesn't work (downloaded 9.5 mb, but failure on installation).

2. I manually downloaded from the Microsoft website, installed it, doesn't work (says install failed).

3. I closed everything, including anti-virus (Avast) and firewall. Installed it, doesn't work (same error message).

4. I reboot to try all the above steps again x2, doesn't work (still same error message).

Does Not Update (automatic Or Manual)

Jan 29, 2010

I am running Windows Vista Home Premium and connect to the internet via a wireless router (Sky). I installed MSE a couple of weeks ago, but upon checking yesterday I found that it actually does not update (automatic or manual), instead it gives me the error message "Virus & Spyware definitions update failed. MSE was not able to check for updates - make sure computer is connected to the interned and try again", even though I am clearly connected to the internet (actually using it whilst trying to update MSE).

Having read your forum I uninstalled MSE, used a clean up tool to remove any potential remainders of previous anti-spyware programs and re-installed MSE. Initially the virus update worked fine, scanned the laptop and thought problem sorted. This morning, out of interest, I tried to update the virus definitions again, just to see if it works, but no, I am now getting the same error message again...also, for quite some time now, when Windows informs me that there are updates available and I try to install these I get an error message, plus I can't log into Messenger either?

SP1 For An MVP: Update Process Could Cause After A Manual Download

May 8, 2008

I have been waiting for Windows Update to offer SP1 and it has not happened yet. I am in no rush for SP1, but am beginning to wonder if it will ever be automatically offered. Should I continue to wait, or should I manually download it from the MS site. My concern is the update process might know something about my system that could cause me problems after a manual download.

I just installed Windows Vista Ultimate SP1 Intregated, and when I ran updates I failed at installing one update; 'KB938371'. I did some searching, and it seems this is only for those who wants to install SP1 via the Windows Update Service? If thats the case, why does it show? And if that is not the case, why doesnt it install? I've tried to reboot, then installing only that update. Downloading the update and executing, downloaded -> rebooted -> installing.

SP1 Fails To Install: Automatic And Manual Download Versions Of SP1

Jun 11, 2008

SP1 went through the full install routine, but when it reaches the end of Stage 3, I get a message saying that SP1 failed to install and it then goes through a lengthy process to revert to the computer's previous state. There is no detailed error message telling me why it failed to install. I've tried both the automatic and manual download versions of SP1. I've also tried it with all of my virus and internet security turned off. I still get the same message. how I can get SP1 to install.

Windows Update Failing Error Code 80070103

May 27, 2009

in my Windows Update, this 'optional' update is forever on there, waiting for me to install it. Well, when I do try to install it, it just ends up failing with error code 80070103 (Unknown error). Is this update necessary for regular use or do I need it, despite it being labeled optional. Oh, and why does it fail continually?

SP1 Install Failing Again And Again

Aug 3, 2008

Can download Vista Home Prem Service Pack1, but after an hour plus of installing, it fails... I had a guy from MS's online chat-room taking control of my PC for two hours and he still didnt get it installed. I read the forums here, and followed some instrictions emailed by another MS tech helper... which then l;ead me into hours more messing around because they said I had to rename a file, but Vista says I don't have permission (so I then spent another two hours following various "take ownership" instructions, and that didnt work, so I rebooted into safe mode and did it again and I still can't rename the file, so can't complete the instructions...

When Try To Install That Update For Windows Update Get Error Code 80070643.

Apr 11, 2008

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.

Update Does Not Install Perporly

Apr 29, 2009

First, a bit of background. I purchased the Vista system in May 2008. Last ran a Windows update on 21 June 2008. Why? Because the first time I ran a Live Update with NIS 2008, my wireless connection broke. So, I decided to not do anything significant, on the internet, until I got rid of NIS 2008 and replaced it with something better, KIS 2008. I did this yesterday. So, I ran a Windows update last night. As it had been 10 months, there were about 379MB of files. Since I am still on dial-up (expect to switch to broadband after I straighten out this update issue, hopefully, next week), I let the critter run overnight.

Alas, when I awoke, I found the 'puter wating for my response to the question of whether I wanted to upgrade from IE 7 to IE 8. Due to the inactivity, I was logged off by my ISP. Today, I ran several updates, until I finally got to an update that indicated that there was only 1 optional update remaining. However, this update will not install. The following are the details. Quote: Realtek - Network - Realtek RTL8168B/8111B Family PCI-E GBE NIC Download size: 148 KB You may need to restart your computer for this update to take effect. Update type: Optional DriverUpdate: Realtek Network software update released in February, 2009: Select a Product Solution Center P.S. Error code was 80070103 Windows Update Encountered am Unknown Error

Forced To Manual Shut Down + Bios Question

Jul 28, 2008

Several times now I had to use the power button to shut down my pc.

This happens odd times. Last night I had been using Firefox, I.E. to visit various web sites (No porn sites) and a FTP program. When I went to shut down, I first closed all open programs except Zone Alarm and Norton and tried to close via windows. It did not work, even clicking on the browser icon did do nothing.

As I am not sure what to produce from the event viewer,I made a pic of July 27 events. I have not a clue how to read these events.

The other question, (just out of curiousity) When and why does one need to update the bios?

Manual Reboot After Freeze Harm Computer?

Apr 1, 2008

Periodically, my Vista SP1 PC freezes up. The mouse vanishes unless you move to to the bottom of the screen where the taskbar is -- and you'll see a spinning blue circle - but no keys or clicks work. Here's the question. When this happens, does manually restarting by holding down the power button damage the computer or performance or reliability of Vista?

Every time I try to shut down my computer or restart it, it goes to the "Logging Off" screen and stays there till the end of time or until I do a manual power off. After being forced to manually power off, I power back on and get the "Windows did not shut down properly" message. So basically, I can never shut my computer down properly.

Find Download And Install The Update?

Oct 24, 2009

Running Vista Home Prem32Bit....will Upgrade to Windows7 32BIT. Ran Microsoft's Windows 7 Advisor....the Report shows under the PROGRAM section, Cisco PEAP MODULE 1.0.13 is not compatible. It shows update is available and when you click on it you go to a Cisco Site....but I couldn't find the download, for that matter, any downloads. I have tried to get help from CISCO, it is impossible. All I wanted was the link to download the Update and all they wanted was a contract number. I don't even know what this program does...it may be the wireless Password Security? It should not be this difficult, I need to update PEAP and I have spent many hours at the Cisco site and Internet searches and have been unable to find the download that will update Cisco PEAP Module to a version that is Compatible with Windows 7. Hopefully someone else has been sucessful and has located the site where I can download and install the Update.........

Windows Update Does Not Offer To Install SP1 -Why?

Jul 3, 2008

Using a fairly new Dell PC without SP 1 installed, Windows Update does not offer to install SP1, for some reason. Dell Tech Support said that was probably due to the fact that my PC has all the important updates installed, and to offer to install SP1 would be duplicative and might involve downloading duplicative files. But does this make sense? Would I then just keep installing routine important updates, waiting till SP 2 comes out? In any case, I am reluctant to download SP 1 directly from the Microsoft website, as they strongly recommend against doing so.
