Hello Bigbrotherbrian,

I think that thie problem is maybe due to one of the following reasons:

  1. You are not logged as administrator (or equivalent)

  2. Strategy of automatic updates is enabled

  3. Automatic updates (and Windows Update) access is blocked by group policy

To solve problems, just follow the steps below:

To do automatic updates options configurable by the user (only for stand-alone systems), remove restrictions 2 & 3 above.

  • Click Start, run and type REGEDIT to . EXE

  • Go to this location:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE-SOFTWARE-policies-Microsoft-Windows------WindowsUpdate------AU

  • In the right pane, delete the two values AUOptions and NoAutoUpdate

  • Go to this location:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER-SOFTWARE-Microsoft-Windows-CurrentVersion------policies------WindowsUpdate

  • In the right pane, delete the value DisableWindowsUpdateAccess.

Hope that this resolution should solve your problem.

    How ever there are other issues related to this fixit said was the corrupt problem entered in the register, almost everthing verified fixit showed was in trouble.

    I tried "the pirates of registry" and does not really depend on their ability, the problem is still there.

    Although I could never use the web site windows update, I had automatic updates, windows allowed 132 + updates to install, even this will be undate is no longer this device, I tried to turn the auto update turned off the system restart, then activation updates, which did not help.

    At this point, present an repaired actually a problem of update, I know that xp only will continue until April 2014.

    Note it is a XP OEM operating system was complete with sp2, I downloaded and installed the sp3.

    as I said I installed manually all the available updates for this machine that were not needed and even the manual attempt to installed, updates, windows don't settle.

    Hi Robert,.

  • After a recovery, I can not download the SP3 for XP Home Edition and automatic updates do not work without it.

    After making a recovery, my Automatic Updates download updates and SP3 will not download. The error message says that I need to download SP3 and tried about 20 times without success. I have Windows XP Home Edition. The SP3 update was on the computer as it came out and was still on the computer at the time that I made the recovery. I have Webroot and Windows anti-virus.

    I did not stand alone Setup because it indicated that it was for computer scientists and and download on several computers.

    This warning from Microsoft can be ignored. If this also fails, try please report and the stand-alone Installer. I suggest saving the Setup program and then run it from the save location once the download is finished, this will avoid having to download it again. The SP3 installation may take some time according to the PC on which it is installed. 30 minutes is longer than some I've done but less than others.

    To determine if SP3 is still doing, looking at the disk activity light and listen to the disk activity. If the light blinks and you can hear sounds from the disk drive, it is likely that SP3 is still what he needs. You can also start the Task Manager before starting installation (via ctrl-alt-del) and monitor the process of CPU consumption on the process tab to see if things are still active.

    "When I try to manually install SP3, I get two windows.

    My assumption is that you're trying through Windows updates, if this is not the case please can you explain exactly what you do?

    Hello

    It is possible that the setting you need have not enabled by default, so you better check the following.

    Open windows control panel, open the mouse, select the tab "Setting ClickPad", and then click the setting button ClickPad.  In the next window, enter a check mark in the "Scroll" checkbox, then click on the word 'Scrolling' and you will see a cog on the right.  Click the sprocket to open another page of settings and enter a check mark in the box against "Vertical scroll".  Click on the close button and then click on apply and Ok in the previous window.

    You may well find other 'gesture options' can also be activated in the same way.
