  • Update of security for Microsoft Works 9 (KB2431831)

    I had a Windows Update for the latest month - updating security for Microsoft Works 9 (KB2431831).  During the installation of this update attempt, he asked the installation disc.  Microsoft Works has been pre-loaded onto my desktop Dell computer. So, I don't have the installation disc required to remove this update.  I spoke with Microsoft - they tried to erase without the disc without success.  I called Dell who won't work on the question, because it is now out of warranty.  All ideas except to the ignore the windows of each update works? Thank you.

    I know that's probably not useful to most of you, but I had the same problem and do not think that I had any disc that came with my Dell.  I looked around and found that the original package provided with the Dell XPS has a marked disk Microsoft Works 9.  Insert this disc and run the update succeeded.  So maybe check around to see if you have lying around somewhere...

  • Error 643 for update of security for Microsoft visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (KB973924)

    I try to install the update of security for Microsoft visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (KB973924) via windows update and get error 643.

    I ran the troubleshooting tool, but as usual, it does not solve anything (couldn't even understand something was wrong).

    I've tried searching for an answer but apparently 'error 643' is given for shit close to everything and I was unable to find a solution for my problem.

    the computer is running Windows 7 32 bit.  This problem also prevents Windows Essentials 2011 and I think that the issue is also what keeps me to install "Visual C++ Runtime for Dragon NaturallySpeaking 9.0", which gives me Error 1935.  I didn't chance to find a solution so that the error code is.
