Cannot install Vista 64-bit Service Pack 2

My computer guard invites me to install Service Pack 2. But every time that I go through the process that ends with the message "Installation was not successful." How can I solve this problem? Someone has an idea?

I get the error message reads error: ERROR_HANDLE_EOF (0 x 80070026)

  • 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!

  • How to install Win7 64-bit Service Pack 1, updates and applications correctly

    What I want to do:

    I have 2 x legitimate copies of Win 7 64 bit SP1 on DVD.  I want to install on 2 separate PC with new facilities.

    The problem that I've encountered so far:

    I formatted the hard disk in the #1 PC, installed Win 7 SP1, install the drivers that came with the motherboard (with the series of reboots), active Windows and tried to run Windows updates before installing additional software.  Windows Update installed a 'Windows Client software update' update and then began the verification of updates.  However, it remains to check for updates for always)<17 hours). ="" windows="" update="" shouldn't="" have="" choked="" at="" this="" early="" stage,="" so="" something="" has="" changed="" on="" the="" microsoft="" side="" of="" things. ="" i="" know="" that="" the="" hardware="" is="" fine="" because="" i="" had="" win="" 7="" on="" it="" prior="" and="" i="" ran="" diagnostics="" on="" it="" to="" be="" sure. ="" a="" full="" a/v="" scan="" was="" performed="" to="" ensure="" everything="" is="" clean. ="" i="" haven't="" started="" pc="" #2="">

    My question:

    What is the proper sequence of steps to get Windows 7 SP1, updates, MS Office, 3rd the party games (ex: WoW, SC-2, Diablo 3, steam), McAfee A / V, etc., installed clean so that my PC run smooth?  I know that some software requires that a specific minimum version of .NET installed, so the installation sequence is important.  I will be formatting the drive on PC #1 once again before a new attempt.

    PC Hardware #1 Info:

    -Card mother Asus Z87 - Pro (embedded ethernet and wireless adapters)

    -Processor i3-4130

    -16 GB OF RAM

    -EVGA GTX 650 graphics card

    -Drive hard Seagate SATA 6 to 2

    -LiteON SATA DVD burner

    -Keyboard Logitech K120 and MS Mouse (the two USB)

    -Drive hard Seagate SATA 6 to 2

    -LiteON SATA DVD burner

    -Keyboard Logitech K120 and MS Mouse (the two USB)

    I have the original driver/utility DVD that come with motherboards and I have the updated drivers downloaded from the Asus site.  Each drive has 2 partitions.  Partition-1, drive C is for Win 7 OS, and it is marked as active/bootable.  Partition-2, drive D is where the updated motherboard drivers.  Both partitions are formatted with NTFS file systems.

    Thanks in advance.

    We have progress!  Found 112 updates and I started the download.  Thanks to André and J.W. Stuart.  It took like 5 to 7 hours to produce a list of the updates after you install the update rollup.  Either way, I found the following article, shortly before I met the answers here:

    http://www.MakeUseOf.com/tag/convenience-rollup-halfs-Windows-7-SP1-installation-time/

    After reading the article and the responses, I thought the rollup was the right path to take and ran with it.  I installed the battery update before the update rollup.  No errors were encountered during the installation of these two elements.

    Finally...

    1 - Microsoft needs to get their Tech chat based personal support off this dry and outdated script they use.  They need to know about the method of rollup.  However, the tech. I met in a chat session before coming here, was quite distraught and kept asking to do a remote desktop session, even if I refused 3 times.  A tech polished, very persistent but distraught.  The chat session was not my home PC on a PC at work.

    can 2 - I get a good Service Pack 2 for Windows 7, please?  Make available via a file down to local facilities, do so in Windows Update and download for Win 7 64 Service Pack 2 DVD image.

    3. he does really not take 5 + hours to produce a list of the necessary updates.  The Windows Update client should really be changed to show some real status beyond this silly green bar.  I think it is that a Client of Windows Update request is sent to Microsoft, and this request is pending.  The queue is probably priority based with Windows 10 get a higher priority on Windows 7 (Microsoft bias?).  Even if my theory of priority queue is correct, turn around time on the application is properly synchronized in a world of Gigabit Ethernet, 5 G WI - FI and cheap access broadband I have-net.

    4 10/Windows... too many questions/gripes to speak, but I leave it on the table.  Win 8/10 looks blocky with less of its border, for windows/AC tablets.  This isn't a modern user interface.  The user interface is dumbed-down and is reminiscent of Windows 3.11, or as it is a cobbled together collection of JavaScript in the browser user interface.  The menu start alone is a huge waste of time resources CPU and memory.  Windows 7 semi-translucides borders please.  No cost and no hassle.

  • Vista 64-bit Service Pack FPS fall

    I have a XPS M1730 8800 M GTX SLI, 4 GB of ram, and since the vista service pack 2, I got a slow start-ups and game performance a reduction slow office functions.  Fortunately, when I got the laptop I ran 3dmark 2003, so I had a reference point of 46 k points.  I have now a score of 33 k - someone else has this problem - I think only the service pack since I have no other changes that have occurred in the last 3 weeks (no virus since problem I checked with my kaspersky) is, I stopped playing WOW on the EVE of the trial, but it was when I went back to WOW , I noticed an fps serious fall.
    Any suggestions beside, the updated driver (it is now) or reinstalling windows

    Thank you
    Scott

    Hi ScottyB10,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft answers Community Forums.

    Most of the people have corrected this by updating the drivers for the last available. However, you can also try the following steps

    Enable Write Caching' and 'Advanced performance' is enabled for your hard drive.

    There may other programs that might decrease performance. I suggest you to check in a clean boot.

    To perform a clean boot:

    1. sign the computer by using an account with administrator rights.

    2. click on start, type msconfig.exe in the start search box and press ENTER to start the System Configuration utility. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue.

    3. on the general tab, click Selective startup, and then clear the check box load startup items. (The check box use the file Boot is not available.)

    4. on the Services tab, click to select the skin all the Microsoft services check box, and then click Disable all.

    5. click OK and then click on restart.

    If it works fine then follow the article to find out which program is causing the problem

  • Cannot install Microsoft Office suite service pack 3.

    Original title: upgrades will not be installed

    Hello-

    When even the computer tells me that "upgrades are available" for "suite 2007 microsoft office service pack 3"(j'ai XP/SP3), the machine told me a few seconds later that this upgrade has not been installed. "."  I'm skipping a step?  How can I fix it?  I tried to reinstall several times, but got no results.

    Thanks for all help; I apologize for what is probably obvious ignorance!

    -susie margaret

    Hello, cameron-

    first of all, please ignore everything in my previous post, because a very mysterious thing happened!

    as you know, I fought for seven months with the installation of the 2007 office suite service pack 3 (which had first appeared in the list of the updates that will be available in February, 2012, no problem with downloading, it's with installation only) and tried all the solutions I could find, including ask Qs in several forums and following the suggestions in the responses (except to change things in the registry which I am always too scared to make), and try several times to install the service pack, perform Mr. fixit several times, by installing things, uninstalling, reinstalling things - so many things that I can't even remember that they were all things!  (I always had the "automatic updates" turned on).

    This morning, I started on the suggested solutions enumerated in a link cited in the answer to my question in another forum - http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/Search/Search?SearchTerm=code+80070663&CurrentScope.ForumName=Windows&CurrentScope.Filter=&askingquestion=false.  I was grimly plowing through them, even redo things, I had tried before, when I was overwhelmed by the whole situation and decided to take a NAP instead.

    When I got up, I decided to re - run, for the zillionth time, looking for updates which may be listed as needing to be installed.  Unlike this every time previous search results - who had grown up only the 2007 office suite service pack 3 - this research brought a new package of security and other updates. I think it was the release of September of corrections, which was not before on account of it being August until yesterday!  and, of course, the 2007 office suite service pack 3 was also among them.

    so I re-directed the operation 'install updates' and - and this is! -2007 office suite service pack 3 installed this time!  I have no idea if this sudden cooperation-

    -because of something I did leave the items in the link that was sent to me, or

    -because I presented the service pack 3 with a bunch of other updates (or updates including), or

    -because (at the suggestion of an answer to my question in another forum), I've changed the 'automatic updates' affecting 'Download, notify me, wait for me to install them,' or

    -What.

    all I know - and care - is that service pack 3 has been installed and I'm so, theoretically at least, current with my updates.

    Thank you again for your willingness to answer my request!

    Hi BarbzRC,

    ·         You receive an error message when you try to install updates?

    You can run a cleanup tool Windows utility to uninstall all versions of the .NET Framework on the computer, and then reinstall all the versions of the .NET Framework on the computer. Refer the article below to know how to use a Windows Cleanup Utility tool to uninstall.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/290301

    The .NET Framework cleanup tool removes the .NET Framework for you. For more information about how to obtain and use this tool, visit the following MSDN Web site:

    http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/archive/2006/05/30/611355.aspx

    To successfully install the update, uninstall all versions of the .NET Framework on the computer, and then reinstall all the versions of the .NET Framework on the computer

    To resolve this issue, follow the steps in the link.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/923100

    Later, try to download a standalone package rather than Windows Update from the link below and check if it works.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=AB99342F-5D1A-413D-8319-81DA479AB0D7&displaylang=en

    After you have uninstalled all versions of the .net framework, you can run a windows update and let it settle all necessary updates and then check if it works well or not.

    If it still does not work, then you need to install the update manually.

    I hope this helps!

  • Compatibility problem XP Dell Wireless 1395 mini-map WLAN driver currently installed Vista Home Edition 32 bit Service Pack II

    Hi, my OS is Windows Vista Home Edition 32 bit Service Pack 2 - installed on XP by the owner without first unintalling XP.  Although my Device Manager lists the mini-map Dell Wireless WLAN 1395 as working properly, what Windows says that it has stopped working correctly because the driver installed is not compatible with my current operating system (just one of the many questions).  Although I can get online wireless most of the time, IE and Google Chrome often freeze and there are a few minutes, I got a blue screen - not for the first time - that shut down Windows.  I note the other error message information that a fatal error has occurred that required Windows stops, so am not sure that the two problems are related or not.  I tried to find a compatible driver for what I assume is a WLAN Mini card for the original XP OS on the compatibility of Vista site, but there is no driver is listed for the Dell Wireless WLAN mini-map 1395.

    I have the Vista installation CD, but not the verification code necessary to reinstall.  It will appear somewhere on this computer under the program or the ancillary system (information) available to administrators?

    Just out of curiosity, there is a feature of rectangular white USB printed with the name "Biogear" attached to one of my ports, although he is not listed among devices on my computer since the computer laptop original owner died and I can not ask what is its purpose or what program it was meant to facilitate. I tried to remove it and it came out (the envelope detached the part inserted into the USB port) without affecting my ability to access the Internet wireless.  An internet search has a line of golf apparel and a few articles in German... Any ideas?  Thanks, Lara

    If the original owner installed Vista on XP, you need to reformat and do a fresh install of Vista or you will continually have problems multipling. If the original owner is an update from XP to Vista it is OK. However, the problems that you're seen suggest the original owner installed Vista on XP. Verification code (if found on the computer) will not be for Vista but for XP. As long as your operating system is installed, you can retrieve the key with Free Key finder software, do a search and you will find them on the internet. Also if you have the CD and ask for a new key to Microsoft you will get it at a very low price, I don't know no current tax, was $ $10,00. Since you are not the original owner (and the first owner died) both of these options may not be totally legal, unless you can provide proof of purchase or the person deseased was a member of the family.
