  • After you install service pack 2 for windows vista

    After installing service pack 2 for windows vista on my HP laptop, I started having a few problems. First off the computer would not go beyond the Welcome screen because he showed that an update was the installation (step 1 of 3:0 % etc.) and the computer reboots before finish. It kept the case whenever I started upward, even on safe mode. I tried to restore, but it would never be completed and nothing else would work. Now I can't go beyond the microsoft loading screen because it shows a black flat screen with no cursor. I can't enter safe mode. Help, please. Safe mode only shows the start screen but won't start so I can't access the control panel and tried to boot to the last known successful startup but it failed.

    Hi Juan CarlosPatlan,.

    Windows Vista has only two service packs. You'll find the troubleshooting steps in the links below useful.

    Reset the Windows Update components

    System analysis tool

    Cannot install updates

    Troubleshooting of Windows Update (same steps for Vista)

    If you are unable to install the updates, provide the following information:

    • The full version of Windows you have installed
    • KB # the update fails
    • The troubleshooting steps you have tried
  • AFTER YOU INSTALL SERVICE PACK 1 FOR WINDOWS VISTA, MY COMPUTER WILL NOT START SAYS UNATTENDED, DLL

    AFTER YOU INSTALL SERVICE PACK 1 FOR WINDOWS VISTA, MY COMPUTER WILL NOT START SAYS UNATTENDED, DLL

    Follow these steps to try to solve your problems of boot.

     

    Restore point:

    http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/using-Windows-Vista-system-restore/

    Do Safe Mode system restore, if it is impossible to do in Normal Mode.

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

    http://www.windowsvistauserguide.com/system_restore.htm

    Read the above for a very good graph shows how backward more than 5 days in the System Restore Points by checking the correct box.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     

    If the system or Mode restore safe work not and you do not have a Microsoft Vista DVD, make a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

    Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

    NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    ISO Burner:http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

    See you soon.

    You can download the Service Pack, a complete package and install in offline mode.  Since you already SP1A, you can go to SP3 directly, bypassing the SP2.  Ingore the text on the following links which indicate that what follows is for "Professionals" and "Network Installation" and download SP3 from the following link and install it after it downloads.  You can download on another computer if you want to move to your current computer:

  • While trying to install service pack 3 for Windows XP, I am asked to back up my data. Does this mean I have to save my programs as well?

    Backup information for Windows XP SP3

    I use an operating system of Windows XP Service Pack 2 and I bought Microsoft Office 2007.

    My downloaded Windows Update Windows XP SP3 by using automatic updates.

    When I install it, it tells me to back up my files.
    What it means that I buy my copy of Microsoft Office 2007.

    Could someone help me with this please?

    It is simply to give you advice that you should back up your files. In fact, you should always be to back up your files, either via the built-in backup tools or a third-party backup tool. Backup doesn't mean that he had to purchase Office. Indeed, as long as you have your office key, it will be never need to buy Office 2007. Only, you will need to buy a new key if you want a newer version of Office.

    Go ahead and install SP3. It is absolutely necessary today given that Windows XP SP2 is completely supported.

  • Server did not respond error when you try to install Service Pack 1 for Windows XP.

    I had to do a restore system with xp home edition. Trying to update from sp1 which has been downloaded to the thumb drive and sent to my office at the top of the page. starts to load, and then tells me that the server did not respond. I am connected

    You do not start with a service pack earlier and go to the top. You only download the latest service pack. The latest service pack for Windows XP Home Edition is Service Pack 3.

    Go to Windows Update and see if you can find it there.

    If this isn't the case, then you can manually download it here:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?ID=25129

    It is a CD image file that requires you to burn to a CD or use a virtual CD/DVD software like Virtual CloneDrive. This allows you to open the ISO file as if it was a real CD inserted into your DVD drive. All you have to do is double-click the ISO file, once you have installed this program. Run the configuration file.

    I have uninstall SP3 for WnXP 2 + years due to the lttle terrble bombs which devastated my files and programs on an interrmittent time.
