Thank you VERY MUCH in advance for any help given11 Karen x

  Nanna leighlas,
  Please post with the information requested here: what to post in the Windows Update forum

  I would say you can try a different virus scanner (such as a scanner online) just to check that you don't have a problem with virus\malware.  Here are some links that can help with this:

  Then, you must perform a clean boot on your system and then try to install SP3.

• Cannot install SP3 as it crashes even after recovering the computer by using a recovery disk

  I recently had an accident requiring that I reboot using my restore disk that were made when I first came to this computer. Since the restart, I can't access the updates from Microsoft Updates program. No error message, tells me that I can not connect. After several attempts, I think that the problem lies in the validation of the Windows program I use. I tried manually to run the validation program and to download security patches I've saved previous accidents. I show that SP2 is underway. I have a standalone download SP3, that when I upload in the system, crashes and burns. Back to the same thing, restart using the recovery disk. I realize for XP ends next month and its time to upgrade. But I would like to have this machine in working condition to use for other tasks.

  That's good news. I think you also need to analyze of rootkits being on the right side. So, now:

  Search for rootkits with a program SPECIALLY designed to detect and remove the (aswMBR):

  http://public.avast.com/~Gmerek/aswMBR.htm

  Download this file to your desktop. Double-click the icon to run the program. When the opportunity to download and install the latest Avast definitions do.

  Run a scan. Results in red indicate that this was not a false positive! Do you need to remove the rootkit (including "FixMBR" if necessary).

  And finally, leave your PC on overnight and search for viruses, using this site:
  http://www.eset.com/us/online-scanner/
  Once we are convinced that your PC is clean, here are my instructions (just in case where you still cannot run batch of Geek-Tech file, etc.):

  1. download the installation of SP3 and IE8 (beforehand) files. I prefer to keep these (and other useful files) on a USB key, but this is optional. Here are the links for the installation files:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?ID=24 (for SP3)

  (You can TOTALLY ignore the message "intended for it professionals"!)

  http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&ID=43 (for IE8)

  (You need to install IE8 AFTER SP3! Trust in me.)

  IMPORTANT NOTE!

  It is VERY important to ensure that Internet Explorer is at the level IE6 before installing SP3. In case you have IE7 or IE8, you must uninstall it / them, using the Control Panel Add / Remove programs. Let us know if you need assistance with this.

  Once again:

  Make sure that IE is IE6 level before installing SP3. You can go directly from IE6 to IE8 after SP3 has been installed.

  2. disconnect Internet. Also unplug all unnecessary devices.

  3. temporarily disable the automatic updates. To do this:

  Start | Control Panel (switch to Classic view if not already selected). Automatic updates

  4 set up a clean boot. The last thing you need is for a program that runs in the background to interfere with these updates! (It happens!) For more information:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310353

  (Note that this is the same as setting up a "Diagnostic boot.")

  Reset.

  5 install the SP3. Restart TWICE.

  6 switch to IE8. Restart TWICE.

  (What happens very often is that someone has their software antivirus running as they try to install SP3, which often translates into chaos! "This is why it must be done after installing SP3 and IE).

  7 unscrew the clean boot. (That is, return to the Normal startup).

  8 make sure that firewall Windows is activated (it should already be):

  Start | Control Panel | Security Center

  9 visit Windows Update to download and install only the critical security updates. Restart each time you are prompted.

  10 re - enable automatic updates.

• Impossible to get updates of Windows to work and cannot install anything after upgrading to SP3

  After the upgrade to SP3 I met many problems. Any time I go to install it I get a Windows Installer error is not installed (even if this is the case) and I have to go to start/run and type Services.msc and the go to the installer of windows and right-click on it and select start and then install what I was tring to do.  Windows Update will not update and I tried to restart the installer and it does not work.  I tried the auto fixes but cannot get them to work because they will not install either or will not run.  I had to uninstall Windows Defender as I am unable to update the definitions it is basically useless.  All this started after I did a full cleaning of the computer and then downloaded the original Windows XP that I bought from Dell.

  Try this:

• HyperBowl will not start in XP SP3 / cannot install Windows update KB924867 (service pack is newer than the update...)

  original title: hyperbowl will not start in XP SP3 / cannot install KB924867

  Hello

  I just reinstalled windows XP and done all the updates. I then reinstalled hyperbowl 3d and it will not open up. Now it used to be that if you ran the update:

  Update for Windows XP (KB924867) http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?DisplayLang=en&id=6446

  It would solve this problem (see http://hyperbowl3d.com/oldsupport.html).

  I downloaded the update, and it says:

  "Setup has detected that the version of Service Pack for this system is newer than the update you are applying"

  So I can't install the update. Is it possible to reinstall this hotfix without remove SP3 or is there another work around, I can use?

  Thanks in advance!

  Welcome & thank you for your comments.
