I get Hewlett Packard Updates on a routine basis. I have owned the computer for about 45 days and have received app 6 updates. They are: HP Security Update Realtek high definition audio driver update Intel matrix storage manager driver update and Windows help and support update. Each time I have tried to install them and each time I have received a note in the status column that "installation cancelled"?
View 9 RepliesI started a file copy from one drive to an other using Total Commander, then I cancelled in the middle of the operation. However, when I checked in the Resource Monitor svchost.exe was still reading the file for an other ca. 5 minutes with Background Priority, so the speed was only 15-20MB/s, but still annoying... What could cause this? ImageBam - Fast, Free Image Hosting and Photo Sharing

View 9 Replies View RelatedI 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.
View 7 Replies View Relatedi'll straight to the point: i've bought Vista home premium 64 bit with SP1 included. My hardware is: intel E8400 on a asus p5k-e, asus 9800gtx, 4gb ram kingston, WD velociraptor hd. I can install Vista up to the first time it shows me the desktop, i can download updates, browse the internet and so on. But when i restart the PC (or stopand start again) the boot will stop soon after the green progress bar will be displayed. Then the PC will go in something like power saving (the monitor goes in idle, the hd stops working).
And it's just the same if i let it do the updates or not, install the latest drivers or not, i've even flashed the bios with the newest one..no changes.only when, after that issue, windows asks me if i want to start in normal mode or the "no driver mode" (no idea about the exact words in english, i'm sorry) if i choose that second mode it can boot..so it seems to me a driver issue..It's not a matter of the multi boot, it does the same even with only that hd installed in the PC. My other hd with XP works just fine in the same PC. I've tried everything i could think about..really have no clue about what to try next.. anyone got any idea about what i should do?
I'm running Vista HP with SP2. The update package from 9/8 keeps hanging on the "Stage 3" part. It is in a loop where it is in the configuring updates mode for a while, then does a restart. Next time through, the same thing. It has cycled through this at least 10 times without finishing the updates.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am upgrading from XP to Vista (on the way to Windows 7). After it completes the compatibility check it starts to copy files. About 20 minutes into the process the upgrade aborts with the following message: "Windows could not update the computer's boot configuration. Installation cannot proceed."
View 5 Replies View RelatedThat 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.

View 4 Replies View RelatedAs far as I can determine, this update (released 22Oct08) does not work, at least not with Windows Vista Home Premium. I had update 7 running, and got an update notification for Release 10 earlier today. Downloaded and installed the update, tried the Java test page, Firefox (both 3.0.3 and today's Minefield beta-test for Firefox 3.1) hung. Tried the update in IE7, that, too, hung.
Went to Control Panel, clicked on the Java icon, had some problems opening it; when it did finally open, I went into Advanced and found that Update 10 was not recognizing IE. Opened IE, redownloaded the off-line update, to see if that worked; answer is, no, it still did not recognize IE. Back to Java, found the off-line installed for Update 7, removed 10, reinstalled 7; Java works once again. In the midst of this aggravation, trying to figure out what the problem was, I did find one link to an article that said Update 10 had been delayed due to some unspecified problem. Seems to me that, at least for Vista Home Premium, there is still at least one unspecified problem with Update 10.
when going to the windows update window,i get a white blank page and it says "the page failed to load"i did restart, same issue.
what is it all about?
and another thing, i don't have a Floppy drive in my computer however a Floppy A: drive is present in "Computer" how can i remove it from the list?
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: ...

View 4 Replies View RelatedThe last time an update was installed was in January..since the next time i was offered an update, Windows Update or any of the programs that use windows update fail to update.

Windows Update gives error 80070002, i have tried the "solution" to delete temp update files, and all other solutions i could find on the internet. Windows defender gives the same error.
The updates can be downloaded from windows update, but cannot be download (not even manually in .msu package) I also lost many shortcut files of MS Office (the icon turned white and they lost their target).

View 4 Replies View RelatedMy PC came with Vista Home Premium 32bit. Since SP1 was released, I've tried several times to install it both through Windows Update and manually but it always fails.I looked at the information in the nowledgebase article about the error message I was getting and it suggested running a system scan utility through the command line interface which I did. The utility said that it fixed some files but I had corrupted files that it was not able to repair.I went out and bought an upgrade version of Vista Home Premium that contained SP1 thinking I could just upgrade it as a workaround. No dice,the upgrade option is disabled unless you already have SP1 installed. It will only let me do a clean install.This brings me to my first question. If I do the clean install, it's going to format my HD right? I'll have to reinstall all my software? My second question is, does anybody know how I can get SP1 to install on my current installation? Any way to find and repair those supposedly corrupt files?
