Installation Windows Vista SP2 fails with 737D error code

When you install Windows Vista SP2 via Windows Update program, I continually receive an 737D error Code.  This error code says "Windows cannot update services and important files while the system uses them.  Save any open files, and then restart the computer. »

Has anyone encountered this problem and found a solution?

Thank you

  • Windows backup will fail with the error code: 2147942402

    Hello

    I'm trying to run a backup on a Windows SBS Server 2008 using Windows Server Backup to an external 2 TB USB hard drive - I chose the backup once and personalized with "activate System Recovery."

    This fails with an error message "the system cannot find the file specified" after having transferred about 28.23 GB of data.

    The Event Viewer error code: 2147942402

    I tried to run the backup to another device (a disk on a PC on a network) and it successfully without any problem which seems to me some kind of problem with the USB key.

    I came across these links: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/979281 and http://support.microsoft.com/kb/976972 - but the server I use does not have a USB Host Controller NVIDIA - instead, there "Intel(r) ICH9 Family USB Universal Host Controller" - so I'm hesitant to try this fix.

    I'll reformat the USB drive to see if that helps...

    Thank you very much

    I ran several backups on my external hard drive without problem, but I am now constantly a backup failure with an error code of 0x8078012D.

    How can I fix?

    Hi Helen,

    I suggest to rerun the command chkdsk (check disk) and let us know if there are bad sectors found/fixed.

    You can also see the following article for more information about the disk check:

    Check a drive for errors

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/check-a-drive-for-errors

     

    Important: Running chkdsk on the drive if bad sectors are found on the disk hard when chkdsk attempts to repair this area if all available on which data can be lost.

    Also, make sure that the Volume Shadow Copy service is running.

    Follow the steps below:

    a. click Start.

    b. type Services in start search.

    (c) in the search for Services Windows shadow copy volume and the Windows backup from the list.

    d. right-click on the Service.

    e. click Properties.

    f. Select the Startup Type to Manual.

    g. click OK.

    h. now, repeat the same for the service Windows backup.

    Let us know the results.

    Hi gbislay,

    I think that you are able to get on the desktop after changes have been restored.

    Step 1: Auditor of file system (CFS) scan to fix all of the corrupted system files. To do this, follow the steps mentioned in 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

    Step 2: Download and run the system update tool. This tool runs an ad hoc analysis of inconsistencies that might prevent future maintenance operations.

    Step 3: Clean boot the computer

    Follow step 1 in the link below,

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    Important: n ' forget not to put the computer to follow normal start-up step 7 in the link.

    Step 4: Disconnect all external devices (printers, scanner, USB (universal serial bus) readers, etc...) Except the mouse and keyboard and then try to install the updates.

    You can see the steps outlined in the article below, which deals with a similar question

    So I tried to download KB979482 here:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/en-US/Download/details.aspx?ID=9622 and run it standalone.

    However, when I try this, Windows Update Standalone install displays the message"this update does apply to your system."

    I can live with that (if the message is actually true). But if if this patch does not apply to my system, then why Windows Update keep trying to install it as an update 'important '? How can I get off the list so that the Windows Update log is not cluttered with all of the failed attempts?   Finally, I ran Windows Update Fixit tool available.  He fixed a couple of things (default location, another minor config) but not this problem.

    P.S. running BitDefender 2012 if it matters...

    To answer my own question, you can reset the status of the following method KB2509997 8 download and rename the folder C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution. It would be nice if there was a less force brute to do this, because she loses all your update story and settings, but at least it works.
