Multiple downloads of the same update for Windows Vista HP
Could Hello, please someone help? I've had no luck so far with the Microsoft support line.
On October 13 and 14, I got 10 downloads of updates to MS came on my computer whenever I turned it on and outside - in total 19 times for each download for about a week. He seems to have stopped now, but it is now constantly try to configure something - whenever I turn on it tries to do it but then past my welcome screen and whenever I turn off the phone it tell me also if you can download a update that always fails to load. I searched an error code - 800 b 0100 - and tried a fix - KB3093983 I think. In addition, the machine seems to be freezing intermittently, once I'm in.
Dowloads/updates that appears 19 times in my updates are history - some of them anyway - KB3085544, KB3085618, KB3080446, KB3093513, KB3094996, BK3097966, KB3088195.
I don't know what to do - find out if I have a virus somewhere - not show on my antivirus, if I should try to uninstall 18 19 updates, if I should disable the automatic refresh for the moment, etc..
Any notice received with gratitude. You will probably be able to tell from my language/mistakes here that I am very untechy then please also patronizing that you like - the simpler the better.
Thank you very much in anticipation. Sara
I'm sure that you see the effects of an ongoing infection & probably to long date of a certain type. (Yes, there are infections the scanners can't detect.)
As if that wasn't enough, my other concerns include:
- The fact that the most recent (i.e., 13 Oct-15) for Internet Explorer Cumulative security update is not installed. [Do not know how many cumulative updates you miss but I suspect his way more than just a].
- The fact that IE8 has never been installed, AND the fact that the sine qua non updates for IE9 have never been installed. [12 Jan-16, IE7 & IE8 will allow more be supported.]
- The fact that the two published 2½ & 4 years critical security updates were installed only a day or two ago.
- Your misguided use of registry cleaners.
In view of the foregoing...
The computer must NOT be connected to the internet [regardless of the browser you are using] or local networks (i.e. other computers) in its current state. All business & personal data (including passwords online banking & credit) must be considered at risk, if not already compromised.
OPTION A: Trash of all your data (for example, all emails; contents of the My documents folder etc), format the hard drive and then do a clean install of Windows Vista (or pay someone mucho buckos to do it for you).
OPTION B: Buy a whole new (e.g., Win7;) WIN8.1; Computer Win10) & move on your life. [Yes, computers with Win7 preinstalled are always available - but.] I suspect, not much longer.]
Wish I had better news for you. Good luck!

Problems to install the latest updates for windows vista.
I ran several times automated convenience store. It corrects all but one of the problems found. It is said: problems installing updates, not been resolved in the report.
I tried to restart the computer, but that did not help either.
When I run windows update acts as he checks the updates, but does no progress. It is used to take a long time (2 1/2 hours or more) to find the updates. Now just, it works and does not stop.
I did a manual reset of the update program earlier and it worked, but after the restart to install the updates, the computer would not start up. I reformatted the computer by reinstalling the software and updates of everything. After obtaining service pack 2, Vista it starts having problems again.
I'm just trying to get the secure computer til our new we get in about 2 weeks.
I looked at other messages, but they are not quite the same thing. Most are for Windows 7, so I wonder about their usefulness.
I don't get the error at this time codes.

Windows Update loops round and round constantly to not set up correctly, then restores the changes
Do I need to install the System Update Readiness Tool KB 947821?
Probably not: I had a lot of doubt that SP2 is installed if KB947821 has not already been installed.
Given that this problem is after a fairly recent install of SP2...
Free unlimited installation and compatibility support is available for Windows Vista, but only for Service Pack 2 (SP2). This support, initially planned to end on November 26, 2009, has been postponed until February 26, 2010, so move on! Availability of support chat or messaging differs depending on your location. Some questions may require that more support for which he is advanced a charge. Go to http://support.microsoft.com/oas/default.aspx?prid=13014&gprid=582034 & select appropriate category (i.e., download problem;) Installation problem; Problems after installing a service pack <=pick this=""> ).
In the case opposite & whereas KB971644 is NOT a security update, you can simply hide the "thing":
1. stop the automatic updates service:
Start > Right click on run , and then select run as administrator > services.msc (type) > [OK]
Double-click automatic updates > click stop
(Stopping the service will take a moment)2 remove the contents of the download folder:
Start > Right click on run , and then select run as administrator >
(type or copy/paste) %windir%\SoftwareDistribution > [OK]
Open the download folder and delete its content
Close the window.3 start | Control Panel | System maintenance and (if you use Classic view, skip this step). Windows Update | View the updates available (or Select the updates installed): right click on the (platform) update for Windows Vista (KB971644) | Click hide update | Confirm the prompt UAC (User Account Control), if any, & OK your way out.
4. start the automatic updates service:
Start > Right click on run , and then select run as administrator > services.msc (type) > [OK]
Double-click automatic updates > click Start
(Stopping the service will take a moment)=====================================
To restore/show updates for Vista: Start | Control Panel | System maintenance and (if you use Classic view, skip this step) | Windows Update | Restore hidden updates: Find and select the update you want to install. Click restore. You can now select once again it and install through the normal process.NB: If KB971644 were available for download/installation manual (and is not), I would have you try it.

Updates for Windows Vista Ultimate.
I have Windows Vista Ultimate Edition. When I got the machine, I installed the latest updates for Windows Vista. This caused a problem with the license and told me to ignore the updates for Windows Vista to avoid the problem again. Is this still the case and, if so, why does Windows Update not recognize that I have 'Ultimate' and stop of asking me to install more than 50 updates every time I turn on the machine?
He was the one who told me that the problem was that I shouldn't download updated Vista because I had Vista Ultimate.
Nonsense. It is VERY important to install all updates offered by Windows Update Service Packs and critical security.
There will come a time soon when your computer will not be offered more updates at least that Vista SP1 is installed. A few years later, the same thing apply to Vista SP2.

I have update for Windows Vista (KB2505189), platform update Supplement for Windows Vista (KB2117917) - french and Cumulative security update for ActiveX Killbits for Windows Vista (KB2508272). These updates get the 8007371B error code. I have Windows Vista 32-bit. I searched the Microsoft catalog available and tried a manual installation for these updates, but they have always failed. I have not yet tried to install it in safe mode. Is there anything else I can do to fix this?

HP envy 14-2090eo: can I use the same drivers for windows 8 and 8.1
When I check in drivers which operating systems there are drivers available for my Hp Envy 14-2090eo, it says Windows 8 (64-bit) and Windows 7 (64-bit), "and im currently using Windows 7 64 bit" but does that mean the drivers to support these 2 Windows 8 and 8.1 of Windows operating systems, said in a different way "» : are the same drivers for Windows 8 and Windows 8.1?
Best regards from hpenvy1
Hello:
Your model has the AMD/Intel switchable graphics.
It is unlikely that the W8 AMD graphics driver will work on W8.1.
Normally, you can use some of the drivers W7/W8 on W8.1, but the graphics is very doubtful - not switchable graphics anyway.
You can run the windows 8.1 upgrade wizard and see what it reports.
