SP 3 Not Available From Update?

Dec 9, 2008

The windows update website does not provide an SP3 update option.I am working on a Dell Optiplex 320 computer with Win XP/Pro SP2, 3.4 GHz Pentium D processor and 1 GB RAM.When I connected to the Windows Update site in order to download and install SP 3, that choice was not available. Several other "high priority" updates were available (and I downloaded and installed them).

Cant Update MSE Or Auto Update - Unable To Get Through To Microsoft Websit

Mar 4, 2010

After installing and running MSE I have been unable to update definitions either manually or automatically. At the same time I noticed that microsoft automatic updates are getting to around 28 percent and then stopping - not fully downloading or installing. I cannot get through to any microsoft websites now - but all other sites are fine. wuauserv and bits are missing from services also. Have I been sneakily virused by something which MSE hasnt picked up. I tried to run malicious software removal tool - it downloads alright but wont install - says its not a valid win32 application. I correctly downloaded the 32bit app. Can anyone shed some light on any of this. I dont want to rebuild again and again.

Uninstalling An Update Performed By Update Process?

Jul 19, 2005

I would like to know how to uninstall an update that was performed by Windows Update.The update itself was in the "Hardware, Optional" Type list (ie. not
the"High Priority"or the"Software,Optional" list)The update that was installed shows up in the History log correctly I believe that Microsoft incorrectly scanned the computer and assigned a hardware update that pertained to a different type of hardware ... specifically, the update pertained to an "IBM Thinkpad UltraNav Pointing Device" whereas the actual hardware is a Toshiba Satellite with a Synaptics Touchpad".

Update Tries To Update Trial Version Of Office

Aug 28, 2006

Windows Update keeps trying to update Office 2003.I have a trial version of Office 2003 that came with my computer.I do not want it at this time, but I may want it at some point in the future.I don't know if it can be hidden from the Windows update but if not, I am not sure how to fully get rid of it.
It has never been "installed."Windows update fails every time, of course, because it isn't now nor has it ever been installed.The biggest problem is that it keeps trying to apply the same updates over and over and over. It slows down the shutdown as it repeats the attempt(s) 3 times before each shutdown and also it keeps downloading the same and or other Windows Updates for Office 2003

Update Icon Reappears In Systray After Update

Apr 21, 2009

I am using a Dell, Windows XP Professional laptop computer. It has a non- wireless connection to the internet via my LAN.Last week, the yellow update "shield" icon appeared in my systray and I updated Windows - the update was completed. Since then, the update shield icon has appeared in my systray four times. I installed the update each time, but it seems to have been the same update each time ("KB 967715"). If it is the same update each time, which it seems to be, why would the update "shield" appear in my systray four times within a week and a half to install the same update

Update Now Obsolete And Microsoft Update?

Aug 29, 2006

in my start menu -> all programs there is windows update and another called microsoft update. the icon for the windows update is the usual blue globe with the windows (4 colours emblem, its the one on your "start" button) and the icon for microsoft update is an image of a computer and an arrow pointing downwards.

in IE service pack 1, i clicked on the windows update on the tools tab on the menu bar. this loaded an empty page of the browser. this is the same when i click on windows update on the start menu -> all programs.
however when i click microsoft update, it takes me to the update page where i could download my service packs and 'express' and 'custom' installations. i traced the application which triggers the windows update and its from the system32 = wupdmgr.exe. i traced the application which triggers the microsoft update and its also from the system 32 = muweb.dll,LaunchMUSite. is the windows update now obsolete, unusable and just but a dead-end function. and is microsoft update now the site that replaces the what-used-to-be windows update?

Mar 20, 2007

I recently reformatted my laptop's hard drive. After reinstalling windows and all necessary drivers, my Windows Update is now always telling me I have updates ready to install. When I click on the icon in the taskbar, it starts installing. When it finishes, the icon goes away. However, 2 seconds later, the icon comes up again saying I have updates ready to install. The update I always need to install is MSXML 4.0 SP2 Security Update (925672) and MSXML 4.0 SP2 Security Update (KB927978).

Sometimes Update Can't Apply An Update

Jul 18, 2005

For example, on one of my workstations WU (the latest, v6) can't update Office 2003 or Visio 2003. On another XP Pro machine with SP2, WU can't apply "Security Update for Windows XP (KB901214)." On that
machine, I see it's been trying since the patch (the color control) was released. Automatic Update always fails. My manual effort also fail. I don't see anything in either the history or the logs that would shed
light on *why* the updates fail. If it matters, Installer 3.1 is installed.

Can't Update Using Update...

May 3, 2007

I have not tried to use windows update in over a year (probably bad I know). I just figured if something isnt broken well then dont fix it ya know? Anyhow, now when I attempt to use windows update, it downloads the files, and then on the first one it says "failed", and then they all fail. I can assure you that this is a genuine xp version as I bought it from best buy just over two years ago now. I tried downloading the windows validation tool and it went through just fine, saying "Thank you for verifying your windows xp" yada yada yada. Anyhow, any ideas of what to try. I have tried installing ONE update at a time and that doesnt work either. Also have tried turning automatic updates on, still gives me failed message.

Update Won't Run

Sep 5, 2005

I have a problem with a few programs, being that they won't run, one of which is the Windows Update Manager "wupdmgr.exe". When I click it, I get a flicker of an house-glass as my cursor and then nothing. As I said, this only seems to affect a few of my programs, everything else seems fine.

Why Does Update Lie?

Aug 11, 2005

I'm on dialup (no broadband available in my area yet) so I find it annoying that the times listed for downloads of Windows updates are misleading. I do not mean that they are slightly off, but sometimes something that is listed as a 30 minute download ends up being 3-4 times that. Why does Microsoft do that? t's very annoying when it ties up the phone much beyond what you expect it to be!

Update Sp1 To SP2

Jul 19, 2005

In order to help a friend with XP Home (sp1), to update to SP2, and who has NOT been running Win Update (gulp), and who is on dialup, is it possible to find out on his computer which updates he needs (other than SP2 itself) and then for me (on Broadband) to download these on my PC, burn to CD and then install on his PC ? I think there may be quite a few MBs involved here. I have carried out all the other steps neccessary prior to installing SP2 from CD.

Do Not Update XP?

Feb 16, 2008

I have never been much on conspiracy theories, however recently every time I run Windows Update the updates crash my computer. Everybody knows that Vista hasn't been selling all that great, and I wouldn't put it past Microsoft to start screwing up XP machines so people will upgrade. I never had these problems before with updates, now every time I get BSOD until I can get the latest updates deleted.I'm not going to update XP ever again as long as it's working, I'm leaving it alone.
