    1. have you done any hardware changes or software on your computer before this problem?

    2. do you have security software installed on your computer?

    3. when exactly you receive this error message?

    (a) I recommend you run a virus scan online from the link given below and check if the problem persists:

    a. initially, box run, type "msiexec /unreg" and press ENTER on the keyboard.
     
    b. Type "msiexec/regserver" and press ENTER on the keyboard.

    Original title: Watch Windows reinstall the motherboard drivers?

    I just got my computer fixed and reinstalled windows vista home basic 64-bit. A week later a windows popup (windows new hardware detected) driver installation said that windows was reinstall some system drivers. This does not block it. From time to time once (not all start-ups but most) windows has a very slow start and when I connect the popup apears. The drivers are all motherboard related so I contacted the manufacturer and they just said to reinstall the drivers and if it does not reinstall windows. The system has a very slow start up. Sometimes it takes 30 minutes to get to the login screen. A final problem, time continues to reset. I do not want to reinstall windows, and I don't want to take it to the computer repair shop and wait another week. What should I look at?

  • Cannot install updates for WIndows - error 80070490 and installation disc?

    original title: error 80070490 and installation disc?

    Dell, Vista, x 64 laptop.

    I can not install updates, including Service Pack 2 and IE 8. I managed to fix the other error messages, but this one is a winner.

    I can't follow the steps here because I don't have an installation DVD. The laptop doesn't have a CD/DVD-ROM internal drive and did not come with a disc because everything was preinstalled. Even if I had a disc, my computer does not recognize the CD/DVD-ROM external drive when it is plugged in (a problem at a time!), so it would always help. "The System Update tool does not work on this machine, probably because of that pesky little" compatible operating systems: Windows Vista Service Pack 2 "requirement. I so need SP2 to download the tool which will allow my computer to install SP2? Nice little catch-22 there. I agree with the irony. I disagree with not being able to install updates at all, ever.

    Is it possible to re - install without a disk? Can I solve this problem at all or I'll have to take the laptop to Best Buy and ask them to do some voodoo Geek Squad to it?

  • Error7 message about the signature unidentified, the upgrade and installation of iTunes 10.5 for Windows Vista.

    Original title: error upgrading and installation of iTunes 10.5 for Windows 6.

    I tried all kinds of ways to solve this problem, but I can't seem to find a solution. This all started when I tried to update my iTunes to version 10.5. Then came the error message 7 on unidentified signature etc. I could not even run my iTunes more then. I started download iTunes again to repair and it just doesn't work. I don't have problems with the installation of my iTunes for the first time a year ago and upgraded whenever I allow it.

    All other methods I tried to correct the error includes:
    • Uninstall iTunes completely and everything that it supports the programs and files (Quicktime, supporter of Mobile, Hello, Safari etc.)
    • Download Quicktime separately after you have uninstalled it as suggested by other users in some forum.
    • Update the frame Microsot.NET as suggested by the Apple Support site.
    • Manually started the installation of such Windows program suggested by one of the answers on this site:

      a. click the Start button, and then type services.msc in the start search box and press ENTER.
      b. Locate the Windows Installer service.
      c. check that the status is started. If the condition column is empty,
      d. right-click on Windows Installer, and then select start.
      e. If you get error trying to force start the Windows Installer service, then try to change the Startup Type to automatic.
      f. restart the computer.

      I have tried for at least 10 times and I have not yet set and am frustrated. Would be really grateful a solution to this soon.

  • upgrade to 8.1 windows and installation of Java

    I originally had windows 8.1 set to level upwards of 8. My computer was working fine. I apply for a job, who needed me to do a speed test and a test on my computer. The necessary speed test that I install Java. I installed Java and ended up getting all sorts of viruses on my computer where I couldn't accomplish anything without all the pop up and settle on my computer from search engines. I decided to clean the clean computer to reinstall windows 8 to get rid of the virus. The virus now seems to have even a few appearance on my computer to me because the computer still seems does not as it did when I came to the computer. Nothing is the same, so I have to relearn all over the computer. The computer is a year old. I have installed all windows updates. I want to upgrade to 8.1 windows and install Java.

Then he said: go to settings and check the upgrades of the installation window. I installed all windows updates and rebooted the computer several times. The computer, after installing the upgrades and restart, still says the same thing every time, updates of windows install.  To install Java, the computer says to upgrade to windows 8.1. So I'm stuck. I can't stand those who put viruses on the internet. Why, just to hurt people and make them spend more money to buy again and again, virus protection program because they continue to flock to the top with new viruses every day.
