Can't update Vista SP2

• I can't install Vista SP2.

  original title: my PC crashed and I had to re - install Windows Vista but now I can not install Vista SP2.  I tried all of the suggestions that I could find, how to install SP2 for Vista?

  As I said, I did research any possible suggestion, including stop my anti-virus program, but still not get SP2 to install for Windows Vista.

  Note: Applications, (Norton and McAfee) are notorious for not to uninstall (or upgraded) themselves.

  1. have you (has) uninstall the pre-installed Norton free version to test AND THEN (b) download/run the Norton removal tool [1] & restart (c) BEFORE you installed AVG Free or any other antivirus application (not to mention SP2)?

  2. when (date about) you have to install Microsoft Security Essentials (I guess) and the computer was fully patched to Windows Update at the time?

  2B. was Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) offered & installed via Windows Update or you intentionally chose to install it?

  3 MSE is auto-update itself about once every 24 hours or it is installed?

  4 can update you MSE manually via the button of UPDATE on the MSE UPDATE tab?

  Run a full scan of CHKDSK and SFC...

  Click Start > all programs > Accessories

  Right-click on the entry of the command line

  Select run as administrator and accept the UAC - elevated command prompt window prompt should appear.

  At the command prompt, type

  CHKDSK C: /R

  and press the Enter key.

  We'll tell you that the disc is locked,

  and the CHKDSK runs the next time he started - press Y and restart.

  The CHKDSK command will take a few hours depending on the size of the disk, so be patient!

  Once executed, the command CHKDSK Windows should start normally (possibly after a second auto).

  Then, run the SFC.

  SFC - SFC System - Instructions

  Click Start > all programs > Accessories

  Right-click on the entry of the command line

  Select run as administrator and accept the UAC - elevated command prompt window prompt should appear.

  At the command prompt, type

  SFC/SCANNOW

  and press the Enter key

  Wait for that analysis at the end - make a note of any error messages - and then restart.

  I tried all the suggestions like running the Mr. Fixit, System tool and downloaded the file and install from my hard drive - nothing works. I bought my laptop with Vista pre-installed and there is no way for to run me a repair, it seems, unless anyone has any suggestions - it seems that I re - install everything from scratch or perhaps upgrade to Windows 7.

  It's the only update that seems to have the problem - as the individual updates through the fine.

  Any suggestion or help would be greatly appreciated.

  You don't want to try a Win7 update with the computer in its current state.
  
  If your computer came with a set of disks, there is a hidden restore partition (not to be confused with the system restore, please) you would use to reinstall Vista.

  Hi Tati70,

  Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

  (1) what is the version of Internet Explorer you are using?

  This problem can occur for several reasons. You may experience this problem if one or more of the following conditions are met:

  > Internet Explorer settings may be incorrect.

  > Some third party such as antivirus programs, firewall and accelerators Web applications adversely affect the ability of your computer to connect to the Windows Update Web site.

  > Internet Explorer damaged or incompatible settings can prevent you from accessing Windows Update.

  You can reset Internet Explorer and see if that can solve the problem.

  Warning: Resetting Internet Explorer settings is not reversible. After a reset, all previous settings are lost and cannot be recovered. Rather than reset, you can reset the settings or delete your webpage history. For more information, see the links at the bottom of this topic.

  You can access the links below and use the tool to reset the version of Internet Explorer you are using.

• "Review updates" Vista sp2 page does not load.

  My computer has windows Vista Home Premium sp2 32 x and updates are checked for every day. There are 2 updates important and 2 Optional updates listed at this time. When I try to "review updates" category either important or optional page does not load. It is a problem for several months now. I wonder what are these updates and why I am not able to view them. I am the administrator and the only user of this computer. It's not part of a corporation, company or home network...

  Hello

  I suggest that you follow these steps and check if the problem persists.

  Step 1:

  I would temporarily disable all security software and check if the problem persists.

   
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off
  
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/disable-antivirus-software
   
  Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats.  In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
   
  Step 2:

  Test the issue in a clean boot State.

  Note: Follow step 7 to your computer as usual.

• Adobe 10 will not update, Vista SP2

  Adobe 10 will not work. I spent days going through the recommendations to support. I did all the patches more than once. I've started and restarted. I checked and rechecked the settings. I disabled protection programs. I did manual downloads. I uninstalled and reinstalled. The update will not work. It seems to install okay, that displays as if everything did install OK, but I don't see "Adobe page" version not display; nor can I view independent web videos (vids play fine to an e-mail using Windows Media Player link).

  MS Vista Home Premium SP2

  Windows System 32

  Hey find that vnc dot com (without the dot) and remove it first, then files. If these are system files as you say, so if you are still working with MS, tell them about this. They can access your pc and take care of her. If this isn't the case, then I will do the research on this. At least when MS connects, they log off :-) Yes, it could be the cause of your questions/Windows blue screen. I see no reason to keep anything on your computer that you don't need or use.

  These ads are quite normal spamming. I pointed out also, so tomorrow this post probably won't be there :-)

  I don't want to rest, but to plan downloading some programs from my laptop first and relax!

  Oh, this idea of vnc to my family and friends, hmmmm, maybe.

• 800736B 2 of error Code woes. Windows Update (Vista SP2) fails to install a bunch of updates

  I know that this problem was posted a lot everywhere on the internet (even here), but I would like to explain a little better than everyone else and maybe I can somehow get to the bottom of this.

  The problem:

  I am trying to update my acer 4/5 years, grandfathers aspire running Windows Vista. Whenever I try to install the following updates:

  http://i.imgur.com/SBxv8.jpg

  I get 6 updates installation failed with error code 800736B 2. When I turn the computer off, he pretended to go through the process of 'completion' facilities update 6 (you know what I mean, it says after that windows has disconnected the user is installing updates). It takes about 15 minutes, then when I re - turn on the computer and check the updates again the exact same updates are always listed.

  The attempts of a solution:

  I downloaded and used the update tool for Windows Vista (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947821) system. It shows the exact symptoms of the same as the rest of the updates. It "installs" (which lasts about an hour. Said it was successful. Then I restart the computer, it 'full' Update 1 on 1 which have been installed, when I opened the tool (after reboot), it says that I have to reinstall the same update (KB947821). So obviously it cannot be installed but for some reason any thought that he didn't.

  I also tried to run this tool in safe mode and had an error that says that I can't run it in safe mode. Sweet.

  I wanted to download the updates manually (I was hoping that they would be in the form of some .exe or something) then run their safe mode, since you can't use windows update in safe mode. I looked around online a lot, but could not find a way to download the updates manually. I found a bunch of guides tell me how to do, but non of them work. My guess is that they removed the support for it.

  If anyone has any ideas as to what I can do without having to reinstall windows it would be awesome. My grandfather is really exhausted all of this current vista installation so wipe everying is probably a bad idea. I would like to avoid it at all costs.

  Hello

  You can try the steps in this KB http://support.microsoft.com/kb/883825 for a similar error, but others indicated that they were able to solve this problem by using the KB.
