  can someone help me?

  You can see the effects of a hijackware infection!

  What application or antivirus security suite is installed and your current subscription?  What anti-spyware (other than Defender) applications?  What third-party firewall (if applicable)?  Who were these applications that run in the background when you tried to install SP2?

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

  ====================================

  Free unlimited installation and compatibility support is available for Windows Vista SP2 issues until August 30, 2010. Availability of support chat or messaging differs depending on your location.

  my computer has never been able to upgrade to vista service pack 2, it is said that he failed and error code 80070570. I have also a box gray volume that keeps popping up on my screen. It is grey with a yellow speaker and a red volume bar that says 0. I tried everything on the forums as a clean boot and the registry editor. Any ideas?

• Code800F900 'unknown error in windows update' trying to download windows vista service pack 2

  try to download windows vista service pack 2. Last update was on May 21, 2010. For a few weeks or months, the computer can be terribly slow. Often a hard drive rattle sound. For this, I tried anti-spyware, last week I installed and ran AdAware from lavasoft. It found nothing except two small cookies. A few weeks earlier, I had done the same thing using windows Defender. Also nothing. Along with a check disk hard I did not find much either. What end of the lifecycle for this computer, now about 3 years? He was one of the first available vista computers. Thank you for your help, Peter

• Cannot install Windows Vista Service Pack 2. The following error message appears: 0X800707d1

  Hello

  Three years ago, I bought a Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop. Never met a problem until I tried to install Windows Vista Service Pack 2. I already followed each step instructions Support of Microsoft issues Service Pack for any result or solution. In these cases, I have downloaded the pack update directly from the wepage of Windows Vista, installed Windows Update Readiness Tool, disabled my antivirus (McAfee) and came up with nothing. I even tried to install this update in Mode safe but also failed to install Service Pack 2.

  What is happening all the time, is that I double click on archive downloaded in order to install (having already started my computer in Mode safe mode with networking reportoire and disabled the antivirus as well as its firewall). The Service Pack window opens and I click 'Next' for all the necessary instructions, including 'the computer automatically restarts. When the toolbar installation is completed, the computer automatically goes to restart itself. 3 steps appear as a requirement for the completion of the installation process. All goes well until he reaches "step 3 of 3:100% finished. Do not turn off your computer. After about ten minutes of stall in this step, the following message appears on the screen: "the Service Pack cannot be installed, returning from changes. Do not turn off your computer.

  The computer then rolls back all the changes and initiated in the normal state. After the opening, the first window that appears displays the following message: "the specific driver is not valid. "(Details): error: ERROR_BAD_DRIVER (0x800707d1). I proceeded to check and update alone driver of my computer, then try again to install the Windows Vista SP2 and all the operation has been a failure. I was cracking my head trying to solve this particular problem, and each time the same error pops up. I am seriously considering reformatting Windows Vista from manufacturer CD from my Dell, but I don't know if that would help.

  If someone could help or advise with everything that I would appreciate it a lot.

  Kind regards

• Windows vista service pack 2 (?) virus

  When I tried to install windows vista service pack 2 (from Windows Update), my AV (Webroot Antivirus) software popped up twice messages saying that it detected the virus ' evil/mdrop-gen. " The first time that I blocked the second time it timed out (I think) and service pack installation has failed. This virus never before. I googled and saw that someone had a problem similar (March 2008). They disabled Spysweeper, rebuilt the facility and had no problems. They then did a virus scan and found nothing.

  It is a real threat from the service pack (even once, I downloaded via Windows Update), or is this a quirk and there is really no threat, and I should just try installing sp 2 with Webroot AV turned off?

  Thank you.

  I use the standalone version of SP2 to Vista 32 bit; link above.

  I have downloaded/saved to the desktop, and then burned the disk.

  In this way, you install on any computer. make sure that you have that right, 32-bit or 64-bit version

  And I turn off the AV to install it.

  No problems with it at all.
