    Hi all.

    solution:

    Download the new technology Intel® Rapid storage (RAID) driver 11.6.0.1030 version

    This works.

    The Windows update error code appears after a hard drive replacement, and most providers have only this driver in version 9. XX or 10.xx.

    This driver 11 version solves the problem with windows Update error A 8024, 000.

  • Update Windows with LUA (error 0x8024200E)

    original title: update windows with LUA

    Running windows update on XP SP3 seems to require the account with administrator rights (Yes, I have no updates to download and install by themselves the value).

    My preference is a LUA approach and can use "run as" or makemeadmin and this allows me to download, but not install (error 0x8024200E).
