• I can't install the SP3 from Microsoft Update Center

  I can't install the SP3 from Microsoft Update Center.So I contacted Microsoft Support and ran diagnostic scan tool and sent the results. They send e-mail attachment reset_subinacle. It's done. FAILED. I tried 3 times and 2 days later... still cannot copy beethov9.wma. file. So now what should I do to get this SP3 on my son's computer? My son has enough disk space for SP3 and I made sure and prepared for this installation. Does anyone know what I need to do? Help!

  Ideas:

  • You have problems with programs
  • Error messages
  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem

  Yes, I'm familiar with your recent discussions on this particular computer as well as the fact that he gave to your son as a used computer. Be so familiar with the history of this computer, I feel confident in saying he was already infected when he gave your son.

  I fear that the only way to get this computer secure and fully patched to Windows Update will be formatting the hard drive - and then do a clean install of Windows.

  Since you don't have the disks that originally came with the computer (and assuming that the original owner would have given them to you when gave you the computer if there were), we must assume (or at least to cross our fingers and hope) that there is a hidden restore partition that could be used to return the computer to the condition it was before first it left the factory. I can assure you that can support Dell & will help you, if not directly through the Dell Community forum:http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/desktop/f/3514.aspx

  Follow the instructions below:

  Personal data backup (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then format the HARD disk and do a clean install of Windows.  Please note that a repair installation (upgrade AKA on-site) won't fix this!

  HOW to do a clean install of Windows XP: see method 1 and http://michaelstevenstech.com/cleanxpinstall.html#steps in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/978307

  Once installed the clean, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care ofeverything on the next page before otherwise connect the machine to the internet or one local network (i.e. other computers) and before using a flash drive or the SD card that is not brand new, or has not been freshly formatted:

  Tip: After getting the computer fully patched, download/install KB971029 manually:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971029

  NB: No matter what Norton or McAfee free trial which is preinstalled on the computer when you bought will be reinstalled (but invalid) when Windows is reinstalled. You MUST uninstall the trial for free AND download/run the removal tool appropriate prior to installing the updates, Windows Service Packs or IE upgrades AND BEFORE installing your new anti-virus application (which will require WinXP SP3 must be installed).

  If these procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, good reputation and stand-alone computer (that is, not BigBoxStoreUSA or Geek Squad) repair facility. Expect to pay about $150 USD (or more) for this service.

• Cannot install the printer. spoolersrv has stopped working

  setting up a printer and get a message error-spoolersv has stopped working and was closed - what should I do?

  original title: Spooler problems

  Make sure that the printer is compatible with Vista and that you use the correct software, driver and firmware for the printer AND your version of Vistahttp://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-vista/default.aspx.  Go to the web site of the manufacturer and get the files the most up to date available for your printer and your version of Vista and re - install to make sure that you have the most recent versions (those that come with the printer may be obsolete or wrong operating system).

  How do you install the printer?  What is the manufacturer, brand and model printer?  This printer has already worked before or is this new - and if it worked before, it never installed on a Vista system?  Is it on a network or connected to a single PC (and how is it connected)?

  Go to start / Control Panel / Admninistrative Tools / Services and check that the print spooler is set to automatic and started - if it isn't.

  Check the settings on the control panel of the printer itself to ensure that it is correctly configured.

  If necessary, go to start / Control Panel / Printers and right click on the printer and select properties and choose Print directly instead of via the spooler and see if that solves the problem.

  I hope this helps.  Keep me in the loop.

  Good luck!

• How to determine which were installed the SP3 and IE8

  I'm working on a friend's computer troubleshooting. I plan to roll back of IE8 to IE7 (or it might even be IE6). However, I want to just try this if I know for sure that IE6 has been upgraded AFTER SP3 has been applied.

  I am trying to determine where these updates have been made. I thought that if I went into Add / Remove Programs, I would get this information here, but alas, he's not here.

  So, what is the method for determining when IE6 or IE7 has been upgraded to IE8 and how do I determine when SP3 has been applied?

  Thank you!

• My windows xp home will not install IE8, SP3, updates, backup NT FixIt it or format partition. It is part of a home network.

  The computer has XP Home. It is an older machine, 266 Celeron, 2 GB of Ram that I built a few years ago. It is part of a home network. It has not been updated for a while so I decided to install SP3, updates, IE 8, BackupNT off CD, FixIT and Partition & Format 2 more large players. It wouldn't install them or partition or format the disks again.  It is clear that I have no idea.  Mike

  Hello

  What is your level of service current pack? Click right my computer, click Properties, on the general tab, he says.

  If this isn't SP1A or SP2 you will not be able to install SP3. You will first need to install SP2.

  How you try to install the SP3? Stand-alone package or Windows Update?

  I must say that I'm not sure why you are unable to install, for example, NTBackup. As said by Harish B N, we need more information about the error you get.

• Whenever I have install update SP3 I restarted mode safe

  Whenever I have install the SP3 update I get restarted safely Mode.It no matter what number others updated or I install first. Then. My solution is to say Good bye to MSE and update Windows SP3. Since Microsoft has already ceased support of the SP2 and stop support for SP3 in 2014, SP3 can t be acquired on a computer running SP2.

  Original title: will NEVER install SP3

  How were you install SP3? Try this way if you don't.
   
   
  If SP3 has been downloaded with a program antivirus or anti-spyware, running, you may have a bad installation.
   
  From: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/windowsxp/cc164204.aspx
   
  * If the configuration of your antivirus software prevents certain system changing files, SP3 installation may fail. Try temporarily disabling your antivirus software. You can usually do this by double-clicking on the icon for your antivirus program (it usually appears in the lower right of the computer screen) and clicking on disable.
   
  * If you disable your antivirus software before you install the service pack, do not forget that you are aware of the risks involved, don't forget to enable it after the service pack is installed.
   
  Remove SP3 via Add/Remove Programs, reboot and download and install again. Click on the link below. Do not use the Windows updates. Before you install, disable your antivirus and anti-spyware such as Windows Defender programs. If you are using another firewall, disable and enable Windows Firewall in the control panel for the installation. Once a requires SP3 and working, you can activate the third-party firewall and put the Windows Firewall. Do not keep the two running.

• Is it possible to install the same recovery XP 2 times on 2 partitions

  Dear people.

  Is it possible to install the Recovery XP home 2 times on 2 partitions on my Satellite?
  I want one as a desktop and one for music downloads.

  When I boot the second new system installed there say: installation is not complete, please reinstall!

  Thanks in advance

  What model of laptop you have exactly? As previous user written with former recovery media, it should be possible (I can't tell for sure) because the use of the expert installations you can choose the partition where the OS is to be installed.

  If you have newer model cell phone with new software to recovery (RECO) something like this is not possible.

  It seems that you have chosen to "restore the computer to factory State" that will indeed have destroyed ALL of your personal files, in addition to removing all the programs that you installed after that you got the computer first.

  A problem with restoring to factory State, it is that Windows will be updated to the date of the computer has left the factory.

  The first step is now to determine the State of your hard drive - a problem with the hard drive is probably the cause of the original error on HAL. DLL. most probably the "restoration" process has solved all the problems, but it is worth the visit.

  Open my computer, right-click on the icon for the C: drive and select Properties.
  Select the Tools tab
  Click on the "Check now" button
  Check the two boxes in the window "Check Disk drive Local (c)"
  Click on click Start

  

  Answer Yes to the question in the following window appears:

  

  Click OK to close the Properties window, and then restart the computer.

  When the computer restarts, you will see something like this:
  

  When chkdsk is finished and has (hopefully) corrected all errors, follow the directions in the post of JW Stuart to firstly download SP3 (link at the bottom of his post), and then install it.

  Here is another set of tips for the installation of SP3, contributing Daavee (slightly modified because you already have SP2):

  And here are the tips that still work for me:

  1. download the installation of SP3 and IE8 (beforehand) files. I prefer to keep these (and other useful files) on a USB key, but this is optional. Here are the links to all the installation of three files:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?ID=24 (for SP3)

  (You can TOTALLY ignore the message "intended for it professionals"!)

  http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&ID=43 (for IE8)

  (You need to install IE8 AFTER SP3! Trust in me.)

  And if you wish, download the Setup file of a good anti-virus program. [Get Microsoft Security Essentials at first, unless you have an a / v already installed]

  2. disconnect Internet. Also unplug all unnecessary devices.

  3. temporarily disable the automatic updates. To do this:

  Start | Control Panel (switch to Classic view if not already selected). Automatic updates

  4. install the SP3. Restart TWICE.

  5 move to IE8. Restart TWICE.

  6. install anti-virus software.

  (What happens very often is that someone has their software antivirus running as they try to install SP3, which often translates into chaos! "This is why it must be done after installing SP3 and IE).

  [This is why JW Stuart has proposed to perform the installation in a "Clean boot" State - where your antivirus won't work.]

  7. make sure that firewall Windows is activated (it should already be):

  Start | Control Panel | Security Center

  (Now you can physically reconnect to the Internet. Update Antivirus program.)

  8 visit Windows Update to download and install only the critical security updates. Restart each time you are prompted.

  9. reactivate the automatic updates.

• to install the Xp SP3 but I'm not an IT Pro

  Hey

  I want to know where the other can I could download an Xp SP3 online application and install it on my computer (my computer do not have access to the internet, I use the Internet Café)

  I'm not an IT Pro

  To manually install SP3 using the standalone package installation or CD

  1. Do one of the following:

     • If you downloaded SP3 from the Web site, to install it immediately, click Open or run and follow the instructions on the screen. To install the program later, click on save and download the file to install it on your computer. When you are ready to install the service pack, double-click the file.

     • If you install SP3 from the Service Pack 3 CD, insert the disc into your computer with your current version of Windows XP running, and Software Update Installation Wizard should appear automatically. If this wizard does not appear, click Start, double-click my computer, click on your CD or DVD drive and then click AutoPlay.

  2. In Windows XP Service Pack 3 page, click Next.

  3. Follow the instructions that appear on your screen.

  4. Once the installation is complete, click Finish to restart your computer.

  5. If you disabled your antivirus software, turn it back on.

  Order XP SP3 installation CD - Finally, if you are on a connection slow or need a simpler solution, just ask Microsoft to ship an installation disc Windows XP SP3 ready to use for your home
