• I have a Macbook Pro (17-inch late 2011) is fully compatible with El Capitan and Maverick. I'm a little hesitant to upgrade. Tried before with e lCapitan and was NOT successful Please HELP

  I have a Macbook Pro (17-inch late 2011) is fully compatible with El Capitan and Maverick. I'm a little hesitant to upgrade. Tried before with e lCapitan and was NOT successful Please HELP

  Why has been upgraded to El Capitan failed before?

  The only problem is that some applications require the upgrade and some devices that connect to the computer require updated drivers up-to-date. The problem is that for some devices and applications updates are not available and so they do not work with El Capitan.

• WINDOWS VISTA 32-BIT UPDATES

  CAN SOMEONE HELP ME GET UPDATES FOR WINDOWS VISTA 32 BIT?   I AM NOT GETTING THE ERROR CODES, JUST CONTINUES ON THE LEFT SEARCH BAR RIGHT AND DOES NOTHING. NOTHING IS FOUND TO DOWNLOAD. I'VE NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM.

  Hi BluesBlaster:

  If your initial "check for updates..." Windows Update crashes during long periods without raising an error, this is a widespread problem currently affecting many users of Vista SP2.

  Some users find that "check for updates..." will be finally run full if you let run for several hours, but there is also a workaround solution posted on the page Web of Dalai to http://wu.krelay.de/en/ that accelerates the Windows Update for the affected users. Of workaround requires users to pre-install the kernel-mode Windows updates (Win32K.sys) driver listed on this Web page, if one is missing from your system before running Windows Update.  I used Dalai for the latest Patch workaround three Tuesdays (the second Tuesday of each month) and has reduced my search for 'check for updates...' updates available for 6 or 7 hours up to approx. 25 min.

  Step-by-step instructions posted on 16 June 2016 wire m #l's updates does not, it was the search for updates to the hours are based on workaround of Dalai and will guide you through the installation process of packages update stand-alone (.msu files) for your updates Win32K.sys missing.

  As of today (11-Sep-2016) the current list of updates Win32K.sys on the page Web of Dalai is: KB3078601 (rel. 18 August 2015); KB3109094 (rel. 7 December 2015); KB3145739 (rel. 12 April 2016); KB3164033 (rel. June 14, 2016); KB3168965 (rel. July 12, 2016); KB3177725 (rel. 9 August 2016). Just install the updates that are not in your system, so if you have been fully patched at the end of July 2016 you must have to install manually the last KB3177725 (MS16-098: a security update for the Windows Kernel-Mode drivers: 9 August 2016) before you run Windows Update to install your remaining August 2016 Patch Tuesday updates.  List of Dalai will probably be revised tonight next Tuesday when the September 2016 Patch Tuesday updates (and a new version of Win32K.sys) are released on 13-Sep-2016, then you might want to wait a few days to try this workaround.

  Dalai has posted general information at http://wu.krelay.de/en/info.htm which explains why the Windows Update Agent (WUA) is currently suspended during the "checking for updates..." Windows Update.  The current v7.6.7600.256 Vista, C:\Windows\system32\wuaueng.dll WUA has not been updated by Microsoft since June 2012.

• Windows vista 32-bit update service pack 1 error 80073712 when I try to install.

  I tried and tried to install the updated Windows vista 32 bit service pack 1, but also try to update manually, however I continuously get the update error 80073712. I tried the scan tool update service, troubleshooting automatic on the Microsoft Support Web site, as well as research on the Microsoft Answers site for more assistance. However, I still have the same problem, then what else could be the cause so many dell used laptops for not updating this service pack. Either way, I haven't installed service pack 2 either, as I mentioned on some of the answers.

  Microsoft says that the operating system is corrupt, so SP1 or SP2 fails. Follow this link for repair.

  https://support.Microsoft.com/en-us/KB/957310#/en-us/KB/957310

  In addition, the article is ok, but he fails to mention that, after analysis of the Sfc runs, must complete the process.

  It is, done Sfc, you must also type: CHKDSK C: /F agree to restart, type: EXIT

  restart the pc... When the computer reboots, the repairs are installed/fixed, w/o this cmd, just retry the update is not

  possible, installations/repairs, can take place only when the pc is restarted...

• Cannot install for vista 32-bit update (KB974306)

  I can't install on Microsoft site, this update (KB974306). I have windows vista 32 bit. This came to my attention by failing to my automatic updates as initially planned. Please advise me on what to do. Very new to the use of the pc in general. How easy is very appreciated! Thanks :)

  Hi Pleasantvalley,
  Sometimes the third-party software may conflict with the installation of the updates of Windows.
   
  Make first boot to ensure that all applications and software from third-party manufacturers are temporarily turns off and disable all security on the computer running software as well. Then try to install the updates of windows on the computer and check.
   
  Note: Make sure you put the computer to a normal startup after a boot minimum troubleshooting and also allow all security software after a repair.
   
  Put your boot system helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and reinstall the program.

• Vista 64-bit update crashed my computer

  My office has a great until last night updated (December 13, 2011) auto Windows Vista 64-bit.  At the stop, I noticed that I had the option 'install updates day and then stop' to highlight.  I chose this option, and he told me that he was installing a large number (12? 16?) of updates.  I left the computer to do its thing.

  This morning, my wife turned on my computer to discover that she was crashing on start.  It is just at the point where it recognizes my Raid 1 profile (has a yellow 'Verify', I noticed), and then gives me the screen error-'Windows doesn't have to correctly install the drivers' or words to that effect.

  I am now trying to 'fix' by booting from my drive to Vista 64.  However, it was posted the same page/message for about 30 minutes now:

  Startup Repair

  Your computer could not start.  Startup Repair is checking your system for problems... etc etc.

  Is there anything wrong with this machine before updates last night.  I use McAfee Anti-virus, which is updated.  Grrr!

  I seems that the Raid array was the issue.  As a final attempt to solve the problem, I physically unplug one of my two hard drives and rebooted.  When restarted, the computer scanned the remaining drive, fixed some data corrupted, then started successfully with Vista.  I reconnected it the reader who then 'checked' himself to another.

  Still and all, it's a real "IN." these updates to Windows for this to a computer running normally.  I can't be the only person in the world running under Vista 64 that has a Raid 1 configuration.  Microsoft needs to do a better job with these updates.

  Thank you for taking the time to help me with my problem.

• Problems installing Windows 7 64-bit SP1: "The Installation was not successful" DS_S_SUCCESS (0x0)

  I'm unable to install the Windows 7 SP1 on my laptop.  I am running Win 7 64 bit and tried to install the 64-bit SP1 via the feature updates automatic first, then with the SP1 download manually (Windows6. 1 - KB976932 - X 64 .exe).   The progresses to install SP1 to the point where it shuts down the system and it is charging but when I log in I get the dialog Setup SP1 reporting "the Installation was not successful".  By clicking on the link error display shows DS_S_SUCCESS (0x0).

  (I followed the steps of troubleshooting 1) by using the Troubleshoot Utility "Difficulty of problems with Windows Update" and 2) installed tool Rediness of updating system, but the installation of SP1 still fails with the same error.

  I have successfully applied the SP1 on a different system.  No idea why I have problems with my laptop.

  Any ideas?

  C thx.

  Have you checked your hard drive to find errors? Another obscure, you might try is to disable User Account Control temporarily.

  Its possible, you need to perform an update of the BIOS if one is available for your ThinkPad T60p. Also, check the updated chipset drivers.

  Furthermore, disconnect any non-essential device, you may have attached to the system.

  Its possible the SP1 download may be corrupted, I would like to download another copy and try again.

• Problem with Vista 64-bit update, windows

  There are several optional updates "available," according to the update of Windows.  However, I'm not able to click (left or right) to select one of them.  Only if I select the box "all" upwards by securities (to the left of the name) it works, but then it checks ALL updates, including all 34 languages in option I want.

  I had to interrupt updates yesterday (it is a new system with Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit) because of the length of time that it took, so several updates in the history to show that 'failed '.  I wonder if what has created the problem that I have now?

  Hi LindaDBca7,

  Thanks for posting your question on the Forum of answers.

  My first suggestion would be to use system restore to restore your computer to an hour before the beginning of the question.
  Maybe before the updates were interrupted.
  Here is an article on how to do it:

  http://windowshelp.Microsoft.com/Windows/en-us/help/9f6d755a-74bb-4A7D-A625-d762dd8e79e51033.mspx

  After restoring, see if get you the update selection function.

  Impatience back on your part.

  32 bit is the same as 'x 86', so you can use the x 86 one.
