I made a new reformat and reinstall yesterday to solve the problem, but is happening all over again. I ran the tool Vista only strengthened. I just ran a FixIt and he could not solve the problem of Windows Update. I'm worried about the stability of my laptop. I'm not wonder with computers. It's a Toshiba Satellite A210 Vista 32 bit Home Premium btw. I ran the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor to see if I could just get the hell outta Vistaland altogether and go to 7, but I need that SP1 installed even for that! Having a nightmare. Help, please. Thank you, Simon :)

• Problems starting Vista Service pack 1 update - buckle boot - now

  Hello

  Vista Home Premium (SP0) ran on our home computer. Due to the loss of IE7 support on some sites, that we needed to update IE and then install Service Pack 1 (SP1). After 3 hours of nail-biting install the computer hooked to black screen. Reboot and reset revealed a restart loop. (SP1 was choice of Native Windows updater)

  This was the beginning of a strange troubleshooting. I consider myself a PC tech, but I discovered that this is not the case.

  • I started popping up in the Vista repair disk supplied with the PC, hoping to get the repair of the system than Vista point created before installing SP1. I got a blue screen after you start the DVD. STOP: 0x0000C1F5.
  • I jumped into a recovery CD UBCD4Win CD, I created a while ago with XP preinstalled runtime environment. Started good CD and read up on some forums. They asked to remove Pending.xml and another file which I can't put my finger on ATM there is no improvement to reboot loop or BSOD STOP.
    http://www.Google.com/search?q=remove+pending.XML+Vista+SP1+reboot+loop
  • I read on some forum more. I created a SystemRescueCD with a preinstalled environment location of linux. I deleted the file $Txflog. Following the instructions I can't boot the PC more: pre-launch control ok, black screen startup Windows system manager ntoskrnl.exe 0xC0000098.
    I have had no problems to start the Vista recovery DVDs. As stated in the guide that I tried to reset the system restore point created Vista before installing SP1. I get an error at the end of the restoration of the system: system recovery failed due to an unknown error 0 x 80070570.
    http://www.Google.com/search?q= \$Txflog+vista+remove+systemrescueCD
  • After a few Snort of the forum more than that I was instructed to copy system files in folder windows\system32 and drivers. However, I could not find the hal.dll file as instructed but copied the remaining files without a hitch. This has not changed the situation.
    (Stange done here, the cmd and the windows recovery environment guest is in Italian, despite the version of windows being a Dutch version. I chose the Dutch at first. is there a way I can change the language in Dutch?)
    http://www.Google.com/search?q=Ntoskrnl.exe+0xc0000098+HAL.dll+copy

  So I'm here. All possible solutions are welcome. Please ensure that they are based. I'll try to uninstall SP1 tomorrow through the Windows recovery environment guest. I do accept solutions involving a complete reinstallation of Vista. I have a Windows 7 DVD, but none touch 2nd. It's another language too (Dutch - 7 English Vista). So installation on a W7 is not a direct option.

  Please let me know something. Thank you guys!

  SP1 is not the issue.  I saw this with a lot of Dell computers at work.
  Unfortunately, the solution is a clean install of Vista with SP1 included in the installation DVD.

  If this is a Dell computer, you can contact Dell to obtain a copy of the appropriate disk Vista with SP1 (SP2) installed.

• Windows Vista 64B for Service Pack 2 failed to start

  I've updated Windows Vista 64 b for Service Pack 2 and I get a blue screen when I start my Dell Labtop. Windows Vista automatic updates to phase 2, and automatic restarting leads to a blue screen again. After continuing in Mode safe mode with networking, stage 3 is installed automatically. Message: update not correctly configured back shanges. A new cycle with automatically updates configuration. When restarting a meesage appears: Windows failed to install the important updates. Start the computer again, the message is: Windows has recovered from unexpected shutdown. Windows can check for a solution of the problem. I check the box and Windows plans an another automatic update which leads new blue screen. How can I get out of this loop? Service Pack 2 does not work for me. Emil

  I don't have a system restore function on my computer.

  The problem seems to have been resolved by replacing the video driver that has been done by Mrs support. So far, the automated configuration update has worked and no new boot failure took place.

• Vista Service Pack 2 will not ' cold' start

  I have a Dell Studio 1737 I bought last week. Windows Vista Service Pack 2 update offered. I selected it and ran through the upgrade. He completed all 3 steps and rebooted. Seems to work very well. I turned off the laptop and went to bed.

  This morning, the laptop complete the power on self test and went to boot Vista. Nothing for 20 minutes then a warning to the blue screen. He himself deleted before that I could read what caused the BSOD and then tried a reboot. Black screen for 20 minutes with no hard disk activity. Manually, I forced a stop down and loaded the boot menu. Choose the Startup Repair. After 30 minutes, advised by the screen to try a restore to an earlier version running. It took another hour, but it worked.

  Update Windows SP2 offered again. Thinking that it may have been an installation failed, tried again. Downloaded and installed SP2, these three steps successfully completed. Yet once computer rebooted (hot start) and did fine. Shut down the system and restarted (cold boot). Same results! MESSAGE completed and handed over to Vista SP2 and then black screen. Took me another 90 minutes, but I restored it to Vista SP1, now it works well.

  So I can run Vista Home Premium 64 bit SP1 without problem but SP2 does not work?

  Update looking for a 64-bit SP2 or just blindly offer software?

  I think that Microsoft is using me as a Guinea pig.

  I'm supposed to receive a DVD of Windows 7 from Dell, in an upgrade. I am wary to install it now since SP2 does not work yet. I was so angry, I jumped out early without digging further, but now I think I might very well be better to stay with SP1 and jump more "updates" unless someone can tell me what is happening here.

  How SP1 can be compatible, but SP2 is not?

  And if all you can afford is a response of canned paste, boiler, don't waste your time. All it will do is make me madder.

  Apparently, offered to customers by Windows Update SP2 update is NOT a complete or is not 64-bit capable.
  

  UH - huh...

  1. What is the full name of your application or the installed antivirus security suite and when (date about) because your current subscription expires?  What (other than Defender) anti-spyware applications are installed?  What third-party firewall (if applicable)?

  1B. were ALL of those applications that run in the background when you initially tried install SP2?

  2. do you have a free trial Norton, or a test of free McAfee [a] come preinstalled on the computer when you bought it? (No matter if you have never used or activated).

• Service pack update is stuck in the loop: 3 3 100%

  Hello.  My wife's cell phone is having this problem after trying to install Service Pack 1 for its Vista Home Premium.
  He joined 'Update 3 3 100% ', then he sits for a while before restarting the whole routine - again and again.  We tried to turn it off, and he took over just after turn it on again.  There is no error code.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Hi Dave,.

  Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forums

  Press and hold the power button until your pc is turned off completely.
  then while the computer is turn on before it gets to the loading windows screen, press F8 key several times until you see
  These options
  (With the arrow keys and down, choose "Last known good configuration" then press enter)
  Safe mode
  Safe mode (with networking)
  Last known good configuration<>
  .
  .
  .
  If this does not work, restart your computer. Perform the same steps, but rather start in SafeMode with network. When you're on the desktop, try to do windows updates and stop and start again. After the updates installed successfully restart computer and boot up normally this time.
  When the computer comes back again to run updates again.

If the Windows logo appears, you need to try again by waiting until the Windows logon prompt appears, and then stop and restart your computer.

  b. If your computer has multiple operating systems, use the arrow keys to select the operating system you want to start in safe mode, and then press F8.

  3. in the display Advanced Startup Options, use the arrow keys to select the option of safe mode you want and press ENTER. For more information about the options, see startup options (including safe mode).

• Windows XP Professional starts in safe mode after the service pack 2 update

  I have an older version of Windows XP version 1.0 on a computer in November 2001 of the gateway that I have updated all offers updates of material such as BIOS and motherboard.  Then to the service pack 2 update so I can load an antivirus software which does not load unless you have SP2 or later version.  It loads like a champ and restarts, but Windows does not start normally, I have to start in safe mode and remove SP2.  Is there a driver error that I need to find?  Or is there an other update I need before SP2 for such an old version of windows? (He also did the same thing with SP3).  Help!  I tried to reload Windows with the repair feature, but was lost when he gave me a prompt C:\.

• Error when you try to install Windows XP Service Pack 3: "We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this.

  Windows XP SP3 problem

  Recently, I met a problem with my PC and was forced to use the system recovery. Now I'm back to factory settings and try to install Windows XP Service Pack 3 on my computer. Windows Update won't work for me, that whenever I try to update I get [error number: 0x8024400A]. I think it's because I use Service Pack 2, or that's what I concluded after researching the problem, anyway.

  This is not my real concern, however. Because I could not get the update automatically, I tried to download and install the "Windows XP Service Pack 3 Network Installation Package for IT professionals and developers" myself. The first time I did it, I restarted the PC after the installation and was met with "We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this. "  I went into safe mode and went to a just system restore point before SP3 was installed, but now I don't know how to install it correctly without encountering this problem after reboot. I'm hardly the easy just stick with SP2 when there are potentially important available updates. How can I get Windows Service Pack 3 is installed on my PC?

  It's certainly interesting!

  If the cause of your problem is to have a HP PC with an AMD processor and an original image on your hard drive (and of course it sounds like this is the case), the solution should be to rename the file intelppm.sys and launch the sp37394.exe patch. Once done, the SP3 file that you downloaded from here:
  http://www.Microsoft.com/en-US/Download/details.aspx?ID=24
  SHOULD work!
  I'm puzzled why there is no intelppm.sys file in your directory C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers.
  Since you recently returned to square one with your PC ("return to factory settings"), then you may as well run the patch from this page:
  http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?cc=us&LC=en&DLC=en&softwareitem=PV-60484-2
  and try the SP3 Setup file again.
  But, first, let's be absolutely sure that we are both using the same terminology. Please answer the following questions:
  1. have you safely backed up ALL your data?
  2. what method did you use to ride "back to factory settings? I think that your choices have been a destructive restore (full) and a (partial) non-destructive recovery. The first erases the disk and leave you with a pristine image and NOTHING ELSE (which means that all of your programs and data get deleted). The other (which does not always correctly) is supposed to leave programs and data intact.

• HyperBowl will not start in XP SP3 / cannot install Windows update KB924867 (service pack is newer than the update...)

  original title: hyperbowl will not start in XP SP3 / cannot install KB924867

  Hello

  I just reinstalled windows XP and done all the updates. I then reinstalled hyperbowl 3d and it will not open up. Now it used to be that if you ran the update:

  Update for Windows XP (KB924867) http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?DisplayLang=en&id=6446

  It would solve this problem (see http://hyperbowl3d.com/oldsupport.html).

  I downloaded the update, and it says:

  "Setup has detected that the version of Service Pack for this system is newer than the update you are applying"

  So I can't install the update. Is it possible to reinstall this hotfix without remove SP3 or is there another work around, I can use?

  Thanks in advance!

  Welcome & thank you for your comments.
