Product key required for Windows XP Service Pack 2 download.
I had to back up my data and reinstall Windows, yesterday. I downloaded Windows XP Service Pack 2 installation network for IT professional and developers using Dell's Support Package. Everything seemed to be working fine until I opened a Word 2002 document and asked for a product key. I ran Microsoft Genuine Advantage Diagnostic Tool and product key turns out to be xxxxx-xxxxx-GD6GR-K6DP3-4C8MT. What can I do?
What application or antivirus security suite is installed and your current subscription? What anti-spyware (other than Defender) applications? What third-party firewall (if applicable)?
A (another) Norton or McAfee application has already been installed on the computer (for example, a test free version comes preinstalled when you buy it and that would have been reinstalled, but invalid, when you reinstalled Windows)?

Windows Vista Service Pack 1 install properly
I downloaded Service Pack 1 several times, but it appears in the list as a major update when I do a search for updates. Service Pack 1 does not appear to have been installed correctly.
I tried to do a fresh install from the recovery disk, but the problem remains the same.
The following report was generated after the unsuccessful attempt to use the recovery disc.

After the release of windows vista service Pack 2 and flash 10 my system continues to blue screen
After the last update of windows vista service Pack 2 and flash 10 that my system continues to blue screen, the solution has advised windows that will fix it is to uninstall flash and reinstal, it dosent solution work any ideas? I tried to roll back to Flash 9 and it's less, but happens again... someone has any ideas?
First, uninstall Flash to make sure that's not the problem. If the problem persists and if the problem is related to the installation of Vista SP2 (as seems to be the case), then Support Microsoft offers free technical support for installation of Vista SP2 issues at: https://support.microsoft.com/oas/default.aspx?prid=13014&gprid=582034&st=1&wfxredirect=1&sd=gn. They are experts on these issues and you should take advantage of the offer, although it is still free. I'm sure they will be able to help you. Minimize (but do not deny) the update of Flash and to focus on the installation of SP2 when you explain the problem.
I hope this helps. If this isn't the case, after return and we'll see what we can do.
Good luck!

Toshiba Satellite Pro A10, Windows XP Service Pack 2
Hello world
"I have a ' Toshiba Satellite Pro A10: P4 - M 2.2 GHz/XP Pro/15" TFT/40 GB / 768 MB.
I have installed Windows XP Service pack 2 in my book.
After the update to Windows XP SP2, the only way to start my computer after putting in "sleep mode" or "hibernation mode" is witch power off and then start up.
I reinstalled "Toshiba Power Saver", but nothing came of it.What can I do about it?
Kind regards
KrasteffObviously the Service Pack 2 does not match current preinstalled saver.
First installation, you have is to wait for an updated version of Toshiba Power Saver, which is XP Service Pack 2 tested. But so far, you have no "Standby" or "hibernate".
Installation of the second. If you need to "Standby" or "Hibernate" feature, uninstall Service Pack 2 and wait until there is a solution to the problem of energy saving.
The two sounds is not perfect, but I think the second installation is the best way. Toshiba will surely bring a new Service Pack 2 tested Power Saver version.
Good bye

Hi al1902,
What operating system do you have Windows installed?
This sounds like the download is corrupted. I suggest you uninstall the original download and get it again on the site.
If it's a big file, possibly using a download manager could help.Download and install the download at this link Manager: http://store.microsoft.com/Help/Download-Manager
Also I suggest you to optimize and reset Internet Explorer before reinstalling the PC Studio to your computer
Follow the steps in the link given to optimize IE.

Hello, I tried to install on Window 7 Home Premium x 64 SP1 several times today, and all end up with failed with the same error code. (error code 0 x 80073701 - the reference cannot be found). I tried troubleshooting windows update, updated system preparation tools, disable security software, and even installing in safe mode, and all end up insufficient. I use the Offline Installer (Windows6. 1 - KB976932 - X 64 .exe) because the help of windows update, the download will not start even (in a first time, it starts, then stuck at 22 percent, and then it shows the same error code).
I hope you can help...
Additional information:
Firewall: Windows Firewall
Antivirus: Microsoft Security Essential 2.0
Additional security software: Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 1.50 with real-time protection (has been disabled, but even failure), Panda USB Vaccine (I think that this has nothing to do with this problem)

WINDOWS VISTA SERVICE PACK 1 (KB936330) PROBLEMS? Help, please?
Windows Vista Service Pack (KB936330) will not install? I tried several times, it will take about an hour to download, then just when I think she finally takes, it cancels everything back, and it takes another hour? He says it's important, but I can't do it, can anyone help? I would be grateful if someone could tell me what I need to do.
Thanks in advance for your time
Race...Hi racechasser,
Thank you for using the answers.microsoft.com forum.
. . Please download the service pack again. It may have been a corrupted download.p >
You can ensure that a download manager is used for this process, so not yet of corruption that happens. Search live.com or your search engine preferred download manager and select the one sure what you will find.
Here is a link to the service pack. https://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=B0C7136D-5EBB-413B-89C9-CB3D06D12674&displaylang=en
Another way to look at this question is to get information of the event viewer on the failure that occurred. To review event viewer / click on the ORB Start / computer right click / Select manage / select event viewer.
Find the information in Event Viewer on the failure of the update installation and provide this information on the forum. As well as if there is an error, you receive what it is and ID # is.

Hello I use a Hp Pavalion 64 bit windows 7 computer. I restored my computer back to factory specifications and it seems that I no longer have the service pack installed on it. To confirm this, I have a right-click on computer in the menu start select properties and a top of the window where it is written. Windows Windows Home Premium Edition and the rest of the Windows copy right information. Services pack is is no longer there. I ask if this seems similar to anyone. Can someone also please show me where I can get the service pack and if some slim chance if service pack one is installed on my computer it can damage it if I download it again. Please any advide. Thank you.
Hello
Restore your machine back to factory settings will bring down your machine on day 1, at the opening of the box. You must apply all the updates/fixes for Windows. Depending on when you bought your machine, SP1 may not be ready at that time here. Yes, that's the standard. Please use the following instructions to update your computer to SP1.

I get error 1075: the dependency service does not exist or has been marked for deletion.
Printer worked this AM, but stopped working between two print jobs.
I used Mr. Fixit to diagnose and fix the problem. Mr. Fixit indicates the print spooler service is not running, but cannot fix it.
Is there a source code for Windows XP service pack 3 which can be downloaded to replace the corrupted code?
Thanks for your help
Robear:
I'll be back of the travel. I'm after the suggestion of CARI. Seems to be the right track.
My print spooler system component is missing from the remote procedure call. If I restore it, I think that the print spooler is reactive. Suggestions of curry hit Start, Program Files, accessories and they type net start spooler. However, after the departure, I don't see any Program Files, so am unable to complete the suggested path.
