Automatic download of XP Service Pack Uninstall
Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!
Ideas:
It seems windows software distribution downloads SPUNINST hidden files and folders (groups of 500 MB), log (for example. KB2347290) has a lot of mistakes in there. PC has XP Professional version 2002 (32-bit) Service Pack 3. Uninstall downloaded these files take up a lot of space, there are approximately 255 files and one file has 2 938 files it contains. Is this ok to delete these?, (if I can, they are hidden). Someone had this problem? Thank you!

Code800F900 'unknown error in windows update' trying to download windows vista service pack 2
try to download windows vista service pack 2. Last update was on May 21, 2010. For a few weeks or months, the computer can be terribly slow. Often a hard drive rattle sound. For this, I tried anti-spyware, last week I installed and ran AdAware from lavasoft. It found nothing except two small cookies. A few weeks earlier, I had done the same thing using windows Defender. Also nothing. Along with a check disk hard I did not find much either. What end of the lifecycle for this computer, now about 3 years? He was one of the first available vista computers. Thank you for your help, Peter

Why did you delete your post where you said that Norton application has been installed at some point in the past?
There is nothing wrong with the guarantee of these forums, but I'd be willing to bet that there is something VERY wrong with the security of your computer!

problems after downloading windows xp service pack 3
I recently downloaded service pack 3 on my advent T12. It seemed to download very well and when it restarts automatically he started very well too, but when I tried to restart it then the log on screen did not appear; It started to load as usual and the screen with the windows logo appears, but then after that it was just a black screen, if the computer was still running. I was able to boot in SafeMode ok and took the restore point. After that it restarted again as usual, but I have no sound. I have a device high definition audio C-media. You can hear the sounds system, but nothing about DVD or music files. When I go to Device Manager it isn't even an audio device listed. I tried to download the driver from the microsoft update catalog, but I have no idea what to do with a .cab file once its downloaded. Whenever I restart my computer, looking for a PCI device it says that it cannot find the software. I've downloaded SP3 again and when I do it locates new peripherals - audio on bus high definition audio and successfully downloaded the software and I have her again but am back to the problem of having no log on screen! This time I uninstalled SP 3 in the Panel, and he warned me it would be it would cause a problem with the audio device. So I can SP2 with no sound, but the computer starts very well or SP3 with the sound, but it won't restart. I searched and searched on the internet and on the site of microsoft for some answers, but I'm a loss. Please can anyone suggest a solution? I'm not overwhelmingly technical. Thank you
Since you have multiple problems with SP3 I suggest the Windows XP solution center where you will have access to technical support for your question - http://support.microsoft.com/ph/1173#tab0 Jim - MVP Windows Live - moderator of the Forum - Live One Care - Live Mesh - Microsoft Security Essentials online

Windows update is not download and install Service Pack 1, 2 3
Did a fresh install of Vista 32 bit Home Premium on Acer Extensa 4420. After repeatedly run Win Update and installation of more than 60 update updates said that I was aware. HOWEVER, SP - 1 was not detected as missing but was necessary for the other software work. I found SP-1 and installed manually. Now Win Update refuses to download Service Pack 2, so of course it also doesn't download Service Pack 3.
Why is Win defective Update and do not install it no matter what Service Packs?
Do I have to manually install SP2 & SP-3 or should I wait until I discovered problems or get a virus or another bad thing because Win Update did not bother to run properly?
