The foregoing despite...

When (date about) don't you install Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) and has been the computer fully-patched to Windows Update in time?

What antivirus application was installed before you installed MSE, was your subscription always news, and did you uninstall it before installing MSE?

A (another) Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on the computer (for example, a free trial version which is preinstalled when you bought it)?

  • DRIVER POWER STATE FAILURE during the update of Windows 8 to 8.1

    Hi all, I tried to upgrade from Windows 8 for Windows 8.1 but still get a DRIVER error message, OUT of STATE, and then the installation stops and goes back to Windows 8. As it is a very recent laptop, it should not be a problem of out-of-date drivers. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thank you very much!

    I have a the same problem, but resolved

    just update your driver from nvidia with the nvidia tool.

  • ERROR CODE 606 CAUSING FAILURE OF THE UPDATES OF WINDOWS 'IMPORTANT' 10

    Help, please!  I try to install the last "10 important updates" for Windows, which I was informed automatically.  I tried 4 times in 2 days now and each of them settled due to the 'error Code 606'.  When I click on "help", he pulls up "WindowsUpdate_00000646" "WindowsUpdate_dt000" If that's any help.  Each time, it goes through all the motions, past by restarting as usual, then I get the same reminder of updates, showing "failed" on all of them.  I have not had this problem before.  I don't know what to do to get these updates installed.  I NEED HELP ASAP!  I am a user of impressive program but not at all a geek who can solve the problems that arise, and I have no one to turn to in my personal circle.

    First of all try to install updates when you're disconnected from the internet.

    If no joy, then try to manually download the same and install.
    You can search the individual updates here:
    http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/en/default.aspx

    He just put in the KB number and then perform a search.

    If this still creates one problem another thing you can try is disable the User Account Control first download before the update manually. See: (Guided Help: settings to adjust user account control in Windows 7):

  • Is no longer able to install windows updates after factory reset (windows service exception / failure set up the updates of windows roll back)

    After hours of troubleshooting, I decided to go with a clean installed, this has completely fine until I installed the updates of windows (I have to install these updates to return Windows 8.1)

    After you install all the following updates occurs after a reboot:

    -Default configuration of the windows updates, roll back later, I get a system service exception.

    These problems are solveable by a system restore to a point that has no updates.

  • I was not able to download the updates of Windows XP

    I have a dell machine running xp / sp3 who has started having failures to download or install updates may 9.  Since then he has not installed updates even if it is set to do so all night at 04:00.  It is also doing the same thing on the other computer desk in the small office LAN we have running off a verizon for DSL router.  Chess began the same night, May 9.  Here to install updates from the windows update page also failed.  I ran the utility 'Difficulty now' from microsoft, and it has not fixed the problem.

    Thanks in advance for your help to solve this problem.

    Original title: I was not able to download the updates of Windows XP since May 9. Downloads keep failing.

    If you have been playing around with the settings, you'd be wise to resinstall.  All that are "machine accounts" which are automatically defined by the system to the evolution of random passwords.  If you have accounts of changes of ntauthority to other accounts, you perhaps weakened the security level of the operating system.

    No it's not a portal, that even Microsoft doesn't know what are these passwords.

    What should I do?

    Hello

    ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

    ·         You get the error message?

    ·         You are able to install other updates successfully?

    Follow these methods.

    Method 1: Temporarily disable the security software .

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Method 2: Put the computer in a clean boot State to see if there is a software conflict as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    Note: After completing the steps in the clean boot troubleshooting, follow step 7 the link to start the computer to a Normal startupmode.

    Method 3: You can also manually install updates (KB number) by downloading from the Microsoft Download Center.

    Hi Giovanni,.

    Thank you for your response with the current state of the question.

    I suggest you try directly upgrade to Windows 10 of Windows 8 through the media creation tool.

    I recommend you to check the system requirements for the installation of 10 Windows on the computer.

    https://www.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows/Windows-10-specifications

    Also communicate with the computer manufacturing and try to confirm if your computer is compatible to install Windows 10 or not.

    If your computer meets all the system requirements, I suggest to use the media creation tool in the link below and choose the option PC this upgrading to Windows 10. Before moving to Windows 10, I recommend you make a backup of important files and folders on the external hard drive.

  • The update of Windows 10 1511 reboot loop Bootcamp BSOD ACPI. SYS

    It is a copy of my thread to http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-performance/windows-10-update-1511-reboot-loop-bootcamp/8653... as I was asked to post here by the Microsoft Support Engineer.

    Hello

    Friday night, I went to bed with a working machine. I had a late 2013 Mac Pro BootCamp running with a Windows 10 Pro installed, the Build version before 1511.

    On Saturday morning, I woke up to my PC restart itself over and over again. It seems that Windows Update has decided to put a new version of Windows 10 on my machine without my knowledge. I discovered this after restoring an acronis backup (which took a few hours because of the number of incremental backups)

    Occasionally (about 1 in 20 restarts) it would blue screen with an error:

    SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (ACPI.sys)

    But the rest of the time he would just start, flash a window for a millisecond that says (I think) winlaunch.exe, then restart.

    I tried a lot of things to sort it, including:

    (1) restore from a backup, acronis to Friday morning, running sfc/scannow, and then runs the update

    (2) the creation of a recovery USB, enter the console, change the boot to legacy method, so I can F8, then goes into all security modes and mode of illegal product, but I can find where windows 10 now puts the boot log

    (3) restored from acronis, switched to mac, created a new bootcamp drivers usb, switched to windows and run the option 'fix drivers' before performing the update.

    Ntbtlog.txt is not anywhere on the partition. I ran a dir /s > a.txt then open this a.txt in Notepad and searched him.

    I don't know where to go from here. I can acronis restore of a windows 10 work machine the morning before installing mandatory 1511. I don't know how to delay the update no more, I noted during a restore I had delay on updates that are why it has arisen just now.

    I do not know how to find where this BSOD ACPI.sys will come (even if it happens so rarely) or this that its trying to load just before it crashes (so I can try to delete the driver etc. by the front restored windows to upgrade)

    I guess the widowed causes 10 to do a restore, then the restore fails.

    Overall, I get at the end of my wits with this, to go a completely Windows 10 installation work Friday to more than two wasted days, restore backups, try again, rinse and repeat. It's now Monday morning and I am posting this as a ditch last attempt to solve the problem, your help would be appreciated.

    If you need more information please let me know the location of the files, etc, or their names and I will do my best to have copies available for you.

    I will now restore the backup again, uninstall loading of drivers, and then try the update of windows for the 4th or 5th time.

    Thanks in advance,

    Julian

    Woo Hoo, I've solved the problem!

    I uninstalled the drivers of graphics from AMD (with AMD Driver Cleaner) and Arcronis True Image Home 2013 at the same time, then let Windows Update run its course. Now I have a machine with Windows Version 1511 10!

    It took me 4 days of downtime...

    I hope this helps someone else.

  • HP EliteBook 850 G3: HP EliteBook 850 G3: its problems after the update of Windows 10 anniversary

    Hi people!

    After the update of Windows 10 birthday I have problems with my sound card. There are two sound cards listed by Device Manager. The first is "Conexant Audio of ISST" and the second "Intel High Definition Audio". I know not weather it was the case before the update. I just recognized it after the update when I had sound problems.

    In any case, on a sound start works on the other boot it does not work. It seems that Windows chooses the sound card, every time when it starts. Sometimes it takes the bad sound card.

    I tried to uninstall maps its and their resettlement. On the HP site, there is a driver for the Conexant map bot no driver for Intel High Definition Audio card. 10 Windows itself is not find a driver for this sound card. I also tried to reinstall the other drivers, chipset drivers for example. But unfortunately it did not help. I also tried to disable the Intel High Definition Audio, but also without success.

    What else can I try? I don't want to reinstall Windows. There must be a solution without this. Any ideas? Here's a screenshot of my device manager, perhaps it helps:

    If you need more information, please let me know.

    Best regards

    Ty

    I just tried this driver and I still have sound after 6 resets.
