  Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

  they do it for a nominal cost of $

  also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought

• Downloaded and installed Windows updates. Running to find the modified theme and no clear Vista theme.

  Can someone explain what happened? All the available themes are the current non-transparent theme, called 'Modified Theme' and the classic Windows theme.

  It's really strange and really very boring, simply because I didn't ask for this.
  Everything I have done differently was click on the button that says "downloads and installs updates before Shutting Down", in the usual area where is the sleep button.
  Any help would be much appreciated.

  Hello

  Microsoft gives sometimes you updates for the 3rd party hardware: graphics, network cards, etc.

  You should only get the latest drivers for them to real hardware manufacturer's website, as Microsoft normally does nor those have the most recent drivers available as Microsoft relies of the 3rd party hardware Manufactuer to provide.

  But unfortunately, the only way to know which is the update of the problem is to install them one by one, until you find the 'wrong' for your installation.

  You can do a system restore to get back until it has been installed (which is NOT the best way to remove an update) or follow this method:

  'Remove an update'

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/remove-an-update

  When you have found the issue of update of the list of updates which is presented > then right click on the update problem > select Hide update > and it will not be available to you once again

  "How to hide or show an update of Windows Vista"

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/72491-Windows-Update.html

   

  Here's how to chanage update settings, if you think it is necessary to:

  "Understanding Windows Update and Extras in Windows Vista and Windows 7.

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/Windows-Vista-updates-and-extras/

  Or the other of these two update settings will give you the chance to see what you want to install through Windows updates;

  Download updates but let me choose whether to install them - if you select this option, Windows will download the updates on your computer, but not install them automatically. If you want to install updates, then you must install them manually. You should only select this option if you have a reason to not install updates automatically. Only advanced users should use this option.

  Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them - if you select this option, you'll be alerted when there are new updates available for download and install. You can then choose to download and install the updates that you want. This option should really be reserved for people who know exactly which updates they need, or those who have little access to the Internet.

  But remember you normally only have problems with hardware 3rd party drivers. Other updates are to improve the Performance and security of your system

  See you soon.

• Cannot download or unstall Windows updates since Aug. 12

  The last date on which Windows updates have been installed correctly on my PC has been on 12 August.  Since that date something prevents me to install new updates.  Whenever I click on the "Install updates" button on the box "Download and install new updates on my computer" for Windows Update tent to start downloading (the green progress bar appears for a second or two), but then my PC back to the "yellow shield with the message box"download and install the new update on my computer".  At first I thought it was just a busy time of the day at Microsoft, so I waited until a 'downtime' to try again.  Same no result... no download.  Several updates again 'important' security, but also the other "Recommended" updates are waiting for download and install, but I can't understand how prevents download of launch.  I ran my McAfee anti-virus every day hoping that there is some sort of bug that prevented my access to Windows Update, but no luck.  I also read a lot of Forums and tried a little suggestions and still not solve.  The last thing I tried was the 'Microsoft mount 50202' button and mode used the 'more aggressive' to see if it will address the problem.  The "Fix It" went through his program and when I rebooted the problem persists, although it shows in the State of Windows Update, now under ' updates have been installed: never ", where before running this"Fix It"he showed on 12 August in this status.

  As others in this Forum have posted, I ran as AUDITOR of FILES SYSTEM (SFC.exe) and after he ran, he has stated that he could not fix all problems found and had this message:

  Search the journal of Dir CBS.  windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log

  For example: C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log

  When I went to this Dir CBS log file and tried to open it, it says 'Access denied'.

  I saw a suggestion of "Reset Windows Update components" and something about the use of "Clean boot", but I'm not very good technically and have know idea what that means or steps I must take to fix my problem.

  I even had someone suggest that I had to completely reinstall the OS Vista together, which seems CRAZY to me!  This issue seems to be a simple problem to the surface (a possible corruption in the file: Windows\system32\wuauclt.exe), but when I search for this particular file "Research system" he cannot locate, then it must be a hidden Windows file.

  I hope that someone support Microsoft has the solution for me with a step by step fix recommendation, because from what I can tell, I'm not the only one having this problem for only the last 3 weeks or more.

• IMPOSSIBLE TO DOWNLOAD OR INSTALL WINDOWS UPDATES

  I get the 8007000 b error code what updated single download is judged and the computer crashes when I try to download several updates.  I have an emachines ET1161 and 3 GB ram, 320 GB HDD, 2.10 ghz 32-bit operating system.  I bought the new PC on 16/05/09 and last time that I was able to download the updates was mid-June.  I have more than 50 updates to download.  The computer works fine when it works.  It seems to crash a lot.  I also have my media on an external 500 GB hard drive and other media on a 120 GB external hard drive.  My computer will also not back up and restore one of external hard drives, but this is anotehr isue I think.  I hope some of these downloads will fix some of the issues that we had with accidents.  Anti-virus software is AVG and the firewall is always turned on.  I don't have a boot disk, because it did not come with the computer.  Windows vista is activated and authorized and came on the computer.  I have gone through the recommended steps and emptied the register or something and rebooted the computer, but it still does not go download windows updates.  Thanks for your help!

  Hello Bobbybo,

  Thank you for using the Microsoft answers Forums.

  Windows Update, Error 8007000 b

  If you receive the 8007000 b error when you try to install Windows Vista updates, the Windows file system transaction log is damaged. The transaction log is used by the Windows file system to recover when a file error occurs. To correct this error of update, you clear the log. Here's how:

  To clear the file system transaction log

  1. Click the button start . In the search box, type prompt commands, and then, in the list of results, right-click command prompt, and then click Run as administrator.

  2. In the command prompt window, type fsutil resource setautoreset true C:\. (This assumes that C: is the drive on which Windows Vista is installed. If Windows is installed on another drive, change the drive accordingly letter.)

  3. Restart your computer.

  4. Download and install the update again.

     Thank you.

  UDAY $012 please let me know that whether the solution worked or not, I thank you and appreciate your comments.
