• Unable to update Windows (error Code: Code 8004015)

  original title: unable to update Windows

  I run windows vista 32-bit, HP laptop, can provide details if necessary

  When I try to update windows (my last update was 3/25), the update fails to check for updates, it reads:

  An error occurred when the new updates for your computer.  Error (s) found: Code 80040154

  In addition, I can't update Windows Defender, which signals that it cannot check the updates of definition with found error:
  Code 0 x 80244001.

  I can not also turns on the AVG identity protection as it times out when you try to configure.  I have performed analyses of the complete system with AVG, Malwarebytes and rootkits but with no infection research are, but I do not deny the possibility of having a hidden virus.

  It may be helpful to say that my laptop has had problems with blue screens lately, even these problems with the updates before began. I got mixed messages on the blue screen, errors of entry being the most common. I think there may be something wrong with one of my drivers, I sent my laptop in for repair earlier and it wouldn't surprise me if they did not work.  However, I did the repair of the tool without any result Windows driver.

  Finally, the system restore does not work on my system for some reason any and I do not have a backup disk.  Right now, I'm considering just buy windows 7 and all wiping.  My laptop is not really unusable, it's just embarrassing to have it down every day and not be able to update.

  Any advice would be appreciated.

  Applications, (Norton and McAfee) are notorious for not not upgrade (or uninstalling) itself. (No, Symantec Support never say this.) See if the following solves your problems:

  1. download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

  2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

  3. After completing some you have a copy of your handy product key, uninstall all Norton software (including LiveUpdate and everything Norton Add ons) via Control Panel | Programs | Uninstall a program (or Control Panel |) Programs and features, if you are using the classic view).

  4 IMPORTANT! -Online activate Windows Firewall immediately after the restart.

  NB: Now you're "working without a net": no to ANYTHING else online (e.g., navigation, reading e-mail, chat) until you have completed step #7 below!

  5. right click on the file that you saved in step #1 above, and then select run as administrator.  DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

  6. do a clean install of the 2010 version of your Norton application, using your product ID & reboot: http://www.symantec.com/norton/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20080514162318EN

  TIP: Do not activate or install additional modules of Norton (for example, Norton Anti-Phishing) immediately.

  7. manually and repeatedly run LiveUpdate until you get a prompt "no update more".

  8 test cycle.

  NB: Your Norton application can disable Windows Defender by default.
