• Installation problem: other updates and security for Windows Vista (KB981852)

  In my history of update, this update shows as installation again and again "with success" since August, but he is still listed as an update to install.  This also applies to Windows Vista Service Pack 2 (kb948465), who has reportedly updated several times and still is listed as an update.

  Some info: I'm currently using Norton 360 - like Firewall and antivirus.  I also run Spyware Doc.  I was attacked last year, computer failed and I had to wipe my computer. (Assistance with this manufacturer.)  I'm not sure it solved the problem.  Since then, I have had problems with the computer running the browser to leave/run slowly, slowly, the problems to open programs.  This may be due to the loop of 'Windows update '?

  Thanks for any help.

• Update and download sp2 - Windows Service does not work

  original title: update and sp2 download

  Dawn,

  Suggest that you first spread malware as the cause of the problem by following these steps:

  (1) have your system scanned by the antivirus/security suite installed.
  (2) run this tool from Kaspersky: how to remove malware belonging to the family Rootkit.Win32.TDSS http://support.kaspersky.com/viruses/solutions?qid=208280684>

  If no malware has been detected, there's a Fixit on this page which will reset the Windows Update components:

  How to reset the Windows Update components

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/971058>

  Suggest you download and Save it. Then, close all the open programs and web browsers.
  Run Microsoft Fixit50202.msi and choose its default mode.
  After that he finished the race, see if the return code is displayed again when looking for updates.

  If not, then run the Fixit once more and choose his Aggressive mode.
  Restart once it is finished and see if the return code always appears when the updates.

  IF malware is detected, then please post if it has been removed and that the specific name of what has been detected.

• Windows Update loop on my Windows Vista computer on HP G70 laptop.

  For the past month, every time windows update trys to start, my computer becomes real slow.  I check the Task Manager and find that 50% of the processor of my PC is busy.   By trail and error, I've always found that the task WUPFSVC works always at the time.   I went to services and stop the Windows Update Service and my CPU returned to 5-10%.

  I restarted the service and went to one of the optional updates that I have not installed and when I have atttempted to install it, the computer are entered in a loop and never finished...  I had to cancel with the Task Manager.

  The last bunch of updates have been installed on 25/06/2016...

  I use Norton/360 and System Mechanic.   When I try to run System Mechanic and perform in-depth analysis, it goes into a loop also...

  Any I deas would be useful...

  Why should I install these updates, if I disable the updates anyway?

  Automatic updates of the permitted won't let you install updates manually. To manually install updates means that you can not do anything on the issue. You are free to return to your previous configuration after the manual installation. Download pages are:

  Download the appropriate 32 - / 64-bit versions and run the respective .msu files by double clicking.

• How can I uninstall windows 7 and return to windows vista?

  Uninstall windows 7 Home premium

  How to uninstall windows 7 Home premium package and re install windows vista Home premium SP1

  Given what you have...

  Get/use your Windows Vista Home Premium media (and product key) to start to go and destroy (create new partitions and format) everything that you installed and install again.

  Once you have Windows Vista Home Premium installed, get SP1 and SP2 (in order) to get Vista to update Service Pack, then get all the post-SP2 hotfixes/updates to update installed.

  You also need to locate, download, and install all the drivers for hardware devices,-either by the manufacturer of the computer as a whole (if it's a Dell, Lenovo, Gateway, HP, etc.) or by each manufacturer of components support pages (Intel, Realtek, various manufacturers of motherboard, AMD/ATI, nVidia, Broadcom, etc..)

  You can then install all other applications (office suites, photo-editing suites, video editing suites, Internet plugins, alternative browsers, Internet plugins, etc) and activate the paid applications using the appropriate series/product numbers.

  At this point, you can restore all your backups (documents, music, photos, emails, contacts, databases, spreadsheets, presentations, Favorites/internet Favorites, etc.) on the computer.

• I have error code 8024200d when you try to update and install SP1 for Vista

  I have error code 8024200d when you try to update and install SP1 for Vista. I'm currently running Vista Ultimate. Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you!  Matt

  Matt,

  The 8024200d result code indicates WU_E_UH_NEEDANOTHERDOWNLOAD
  Update Manager did not install the update because it must be downloaded again.
  Suggest you download and Save the complete stand-alone package of Vista SP1.

  Links to the standalone versions are on this page because you validate that the edition of Vista is x 86 (32-bit) or x 64 (64-bit). You can see the architecture of the system of opening in the Panel and next to the search System system type: Windows Vista Service Pack 1 (SP1)

  Before attempting to apply the SP1 please consider this information-

  If you choose to install Windows Vista SP1 via the standalone installer available on the Microsoft Download Center, Microsoft recommends that you first check Windows Update and install all drivers in option. Read the Articles in the Knowledge Base 948187 and 948343 for more information.

  Suggest you to create a folder on the root drive (the drive where Windows is installed, usually C:\) and name SP1.
  Move the downloaded Service Pack in the newly created folder.
  Disconnect all the devices, printer, external USB hard drive, etc.

  Then, Configure the system starts in a clean condition
  After you restart the worm as a clean boot, apply SP1.

  If there is still a problem with the installation of SP1, MS offer support chat and free e-mail to "help you to download and install service packs" here-

  If this is not Vista compatible, read the info on the link above.

  Hello

  There are several methods to reinstall Vista.

  This can help you (download files and make your own DVDs):

  http://www.heidoc.NET/Joomla/technology-science/Microsoft/57-Windows-Vista-direct-download-links

  It is a download Vista Ultimate, but attenuated futher information in this response

  You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

  They should do this for a small fee.

  To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

  You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

  How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

  "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

  And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery on the drive Partition hard reinstall Windows how much you bought your computer.

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

  Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

  Ask them to the proper key sequence.

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

  If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

  And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

  And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.
