  Hello

  -Remember to make changes to your computer, after which the issue started?

  I would recommend that you follow these steps and check if the problem persists.

  Step 1:

  Start your computer in safe mode.

  Start your computer in safe mode
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode
   

  Step 2:

  If the computer starts in safe mode, there must be a third party software that is causing the problem to occur, this is why I suggest you put your computer in a clean boot state.

  Hi halecky6,

  Welcome to the Microsoft answers site!

  (a) update you are trying to install? (It would be better, if you can provide the number of KB)

  (b) are the other updates related to Windows from installing on your computer?

  I suggest you try the following steps:

  Step 1: Disable the software security and then try to install the update

  Note: Activate security software once the test is completed.

  Step 2: Download and install the update in the clean boot state

  To perform a clean boot on a computer that is running Windows Vista, follow these steps.

  1. click on start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.

  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on continue.

  2. in the general tab, click Selective startup.

  3. under Selective startup, clear the check box load startup items.

  4. click on the Services tab, select the hide all Microsoft Services check box, and then click Disable all.

  5. click on OK.

  6. When you are prompted, click on restart.

  After starting the computer, download the update manually and try to install it.

  Note: Return the computer to normal - reset the computer to start as usual (follow step 7 in the link) once everything is done.

• Try to download Office 2003 on the new laptop running Windows 7. Get this, "the requested operation requires elevattion."

  I just new laptop to replace the old office.  It works with Windows 7 Premiure.  I am trying to download Office 2003 Pro but get this after I put in the code p/n.

  The requested operation requires a rise.

  Thank you for your help.

  Did you first uninstalled any Office pre-installed trial version?

  You are installing from a cd or the installation of Office 2003 file? (A commercial version?)

• A security update (KB2584146) has been installed. It shows "installed successfully." Yet, whenever I have re-boot or run Micrsoft update, it offers this update again. Win XP SP3 (Build 2600).

  A security update (KB2584146) has been installed. After installation, it shows properly "installed". Yet, whenever I have re-boot or run Micrsoft update, it offers this update again. It shows also 'successful' in the history of my Microsaoft update. Win XP SP3 (Build 2600).

  It's an old update. Wonder why you just get it now.

  First try this...
  Click Start > run > type chkdsk/r > press OK or press the Enter key. A cmd window will appear telling you that the volume is in use and you want to plan its next reboot. Type y and press ENTER. Then restart.
  Try to install the update and check that it installed properly by doing another analysis of Windows Update.

  If this does not do...
  Download the update manually, on your desktop to the http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=28608.
  Click Start > run > Browse. In the Browse dialog box, double-click WindowsXP-KB2584146 - x 86 - ENU.exe. The box open term should have the path now. Add a space and an x at the end.
  Press OK or press the Enter key.
  You will get a dialog box with the path to your desktop already filled.
  After Office add a slash and the name of the folder so that we end up with something like C:\Documents and Settings\\Desktop\KB2584146.
  Go to this folder, and then in the SP3GDR folder.
  You can see packager.exe.
  Right-click to copy.
  In the box to run, type dllcache, then press on enter.
  Paste the file in there, replacing the one already there.
  In the run box, type system32, then press on enter.
  Paste the file there too by crushing the already there.
  Is there a lot of folder there. Make sure you do not paste in a subfolder. You want to the root of system32.

  Go to Windows Update and confirm that it no longer wants to install.
