Microsoft and several of its Vista customers realized that Vista has a lot of problems, but people who have need of the service. Being able to download and install the SP2 can make Vista more stable, but I get the same message mentioned above, and so I am sure are a lot of other people who are trying to get Service Pack 2 integrated into Vista.

• Problems to install Service Pack 1 for Vista

  Hello

  I'm running my computer on Vista Home Premium 32 bit only.

  I'll just say everything that happened to that meets anyone knows exactly what is happening. Recently, I received a few DVDs of the trial version of Adobe, who quickly, I tried to install. The installer says I need Windows XP Service Pack 3 or Vista Service Pack 1. I found this curious because I thought that I had installed SP1 long ago when it appeared on Windows Live Update. After checking, I discovered that I had not installed for some reason any. I watched in Live Update for download, but it wasn't there, so I came on the Microsoft site and downloaded the stand-alone version of the service pack. I have closed all the programs that I had running and run Setup. He got to halfway through the installation bar (first?) and has stalled for a while, then extended to the end of the bar and displays an error, which contained a link to this page: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/947366. I followed the steps in resolution 2 and downloaded system update readiness tool. I ran the installer, but it seemed just to stall for a long time, so I canceled and he run. This time I got an error before he began to install (Code: 0 x 80240009). I looked for a solution and came across this http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833, with some people claiming it fixed.

  I followed the steps and restarted my computer and it is no longer displayed the error, but it just keeps stalling at the installation screen. I decided to see if I could find an alternative

  solution to the original problem with the Service Pack and came across someone who says that McAffee was responsible, which is the virus scanner, that I installed it on my computer. I disabled

  pretty well all of the program, as well as my firewall and restarted the computer again. I ran the installation but got the same error. I have reactivated my firewall and McAffee and now I'm

  at a loss on what to do next.

  To sum up; I can't install SP1 or system analysis tool and I need to.

  If you need more information, let me know.

  Thanks in advance

  Hello, Ember09

  This seems to be an invalid data error code, Service Pack 1 installer was corrupted when you downloaded it, try to download it once more and check if you get the error again.

  Download the stand-alone update: x 64 | x 86

  We can't wait to hear back on your part.

• 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.

• Updated my computer to Windows Vista Service pack 2 for x 64 function foires systems

  Okay, so I have recently updated this Windows Vista Service pack 2 for x 64-based systems.

  After the update and restarting, I connected only to find myself staring at a blank white screen. However, I managed to hit the keys ctrl + alt + delete and go to the Task Manager to launch explorer.exe through the "new task...". ' button.

  This brings me to my normal desktop, but none to start startup programs and CPU usage is 100% which makes the performance of my laptop more slow.

  Sometimes I try to restart the laptop and it starts normally after the connection, but that happens only about 15% or less of the time.

  Is there a way I could resolve this problem and I function normally again?

  BTW,

  I don't have the CD of Windows Vista or install, so I can't really replace him.

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  Hi DaColossus,

  Method 1

  I suggest that you perform the system restore before installing Windows vista service Pack 2 on the computer.

  System Restore: frequently asked questions

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/system-restore-frequently-asked-questions

  Method 2

  Once the service pack 2 for Windows vista is uninstalled from the computer, I would say that repair you system files on the computer by running SFC scan.

  The analysis may take some time, so be patient. Windows allows to fix corrupt or missing files it finds. If the information of the installation CD is required to fix the problem, you may be asked to insert your Windows Vista installation CD.

  For more information please visit the link below.

  How to use the System File Checker tool to fix the system files missing or corrupted on Windows Vista or Windows 7

  Method 3

  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...

  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.

• Windows Vista Service Pack 2 for update (KB948465) systems focus on x 64

  Hi all:

  For several weeks, I get a daily reminder to install the update "Windows Vista Service Pack 2 for x 64-based systems (KB948465)", but whenever I try to install it, it ends up by default, which gives 80246007 error code. What happened probably 30 times. It's driving me crazy, and at this point, I would like to know if it is still necessary to have. If this is the case, how can I get to install correctly? If this isn't the case, I can't the notification go away?

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thanks in advance.
