  • 800b0100 error code when you try to install the updates KB974145 and KB978251

    I tried to install these 'important' updates several times with the same result - updates failed, error 800b0100 code. I downloaded and installed the KB974821 tool - tells me it installed - same problem. (I don't know if I'm supposed to do something else with KB974821 - I have to "run" or just "installed" it enough?) Instructions could certainly be clearer)

    I tried to download and install the updates manually - without success - I get various error messages, like "does not apply to your system" or "for a different hardware platform.

    I tried this with my firewall/antivirus close as well - using Trend Micro - and still no luck.

    Thoughts, comments, suggestions, help? Very much appreciated. Thank you.

  • Error 8000FFFF when you try to install the update

    I tried both options. First, I used Mr. Fix It and the response was that iupdate has been installed, the next day, I realized that is not true to fact. When I started the update of Windows Vista again, I got the same error 8000FFFF. This means that I n 't have the same update again. I tried the other option for the Proz tech and I did not succeed.

    What this means for me, Mr. Fix It Pro can not solve this problem, and as I am not a tech Pro, I can't fix either. What is the solution for this problem?
