• Cannot install windows updates and updates history screen is empty.

  I can't install the windows updates. I have Windows Vista Home Premium. My automatic update is running... I studied and thought that the problem was with some service pack 2 I had to install - I did and nothing helped. My windows update history page is completley empty and Iwonder why. Also, I now can't seem to connect my Nokia phone to my computer as he finds the right driver online, but then it cannot install it. Can someone tell me what on Earth is cause of these problems. Thank you

  The computer had only preinstalled Norton or McAfee, but I've since deleted these programs because I found them to be boring...

  A properly installed, fully functional anti-virus application should never be boring. Although that pretty much excludes from the application of all the Norton and McAfee in my humble OPINION, there are others available.

  See...

  Not knowing what you have tried here just a few items that you can see if you have already done.

  "Can I format my recovery disk"D "?
  Yes you can.  Usually, the OEM factory restore option will automatically erase the drive.  You will need to check with Compaq on recovery methods they offer and how to access.

  "I have also two adapters network with yellow!  next to them in the Device Manager. I tried to uninstall, but they relocate! »
  Well, if you do a factory restore this issue should correct itself.  However, if you uninstall a hardware device, the system detects the device at startup it will attempt to reinstall.  If the network adapters are part of the motherboard you can turn them off via the BIOS.

• Get the error code 641, cannot install Windows updates.

  Reluctant to do a reinstall of windows.  I had the same problem, find the same useless information on a cure.  I did a reinstall of windows (Vista) and partially by installing the updates of windows I ran into the same problem again, the windows installer does not.  Even from scratch will get not anywhere, leaving you at least your system as it stands leaves can be used instead of a partially updated with no program system.

  I wonder if Apple has this kind of problem?
