My Office Windows XP SP3 has been "glued" on stop, installation of update 6 of 12 for 15 hours and counting.

My Office Windows XP SP3 has been "glued" on stop, installation of update 6 of 12 for 15 hours and counting.  I'm worried to turn it off because I don't want any major problems if it works again.

Can someone please advise on what I have to do to go even faster.

Thanks for any advice in the meantime.

As a result of the survey above.  I 'bit the bullet"and shut down the computer and no damage seems to have been made.

Time will tell I suppose.  Thank you

    Hi Mandude,

  • Message "no coredump target has been set" after the installation of updates

    * This can be removed. Level errors on my behalf.* *.

    I ran Update Manager on 5 hosts this weekend. The first 4 are all Cisco UCS B200 M2 servers, and after joining each host in the cluster and exit the Maintenance Mode, I received the message header error "no coredump targets has been configured. Host core dumps can be saved. "The 5th host is a Cisco UCS B200 M3 and do not welcome me with the same message. I'm not very versed in PowerCLI, but after a search through the community, I tried just a command - simple

    esxcli system coredump partition list
    
    

    And then I'm greeted by a message "a positional parameter is not found that accepts arguments 'coredump'." I'm sure it's something simple I'm doing wrong but fighting it a little bit now and would like to just a little help. Thanks in advance.

    We run ESXi 5.5, our blades are configured to boot from SAN.

    Hello

    ESXCLI controls are raced when you SSH into the host, not PowerCLI

    Please check this KB:

    VMware KB: Configuration of a partition of diagnosis coredump on a host ESXi 5.x

    1. validate that something appears in this list - list of partition esxcli system coredump

    2. set the partition coredump in:

    "game partition coredump of the esxcli system - partition ="mpx.vmhba2:C0:T0:L0:7"

    game score system esxcli - enable true coredump

    You can also try to use:

    esxcli system coredump partition set --enable true --smart

    This will automatically set a partition.

    I hope this helps.

  • How to save a copy of Windows XP that has been created by an image?

    I used 'Image for Linux' to create an image of a PC with Windows XP, SP3.  With that done, I can copy the image to a new PC and it works fine (assuming that I stay within the limits of the PC HAL).

    My problem is that I don't have to enter a new key of Windows XP when I installed the image on another PC. for example, I use a license of Windows XP on two PCs.  Since I want to be legitimate on my software license, I tried to activate Windows XP license to new PC - but the computer says that the license is already activated.  So it is logical that the new PC would react like that - I put the picture of an activated copy of Windows on a new PC, the new copy of Windows must also think that it is enabled.

    All this brings me to my original question: how to save a copy of Windows XP that has been created by an image?

    Hi RichardMatt,
     
    I recommend you contact the customer service of Microsoft for queries on activation for clarity.
     
    See the following article to do the same thing:

    See you soon

    Hi KieranFitzgibbon,

    1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

    2. are you referring to the xreg.exe or ereg.exe?

    If his ereg.exe, then it is related to the registration of Logitech products.

    Method 1

    I suggest that use you the Microsoft safety scanner to remove the infections of viruses or malware to the computer and check if it helps.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

     

    You can also use Microsoft Security databases to scan your computer

    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/PC-security/MSE.aspx

    Method 2

    If the previous step fails then I suggest that scan you SFC on the computer that would be a system file corrupt on the computer search and replace.

    The analysis may take some time, so be patient. Windows allows to fix corrupt or missing files it finds. If the information of the installation CD is required to fix the problem, you may be asked to insert your Windows XP installation CD.

  • Beats Audio Control Panel has been removed from my PC after update audio driver.

    Pavilion dv7-6052er (Windows 7 x 64). Beats Audio Control Panel has been removed from my PC after update audio driver.
    Tried to reinstall manually with 6.10.6345.0 version (http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp55001-55500/sp55094.exe) and another randomly chosen by some. Nothing has worked.

    4 reinstall the driver.

    Just after the start of Windows driver trying to implement something else (or to continue installation), but it causes an error: _Error: Error = error Undefined...
    Tried to do without step 2 - to reinstall the driver right after having been deleted - without success.
    Tried to remove the driver and then restore an old via Recovery Manager - Beats audio control panel is displayed but there is no sound at all!
    I think I tried all possible combinations of actions. Beats Audio Control Panel works without noise and noise without BACP. But never together.
    Please help me with some advice. Thank you.

    Hey guys! Tried once more to remove the driver and install it with the Recovery Manager. Don't know how, but this time it worked.

    In fact I've disappointed with HP updates, won't be tester for you. I'm tired of these bugs after updates (utility Cool sense, Beats Audio etc.).

    Turn off automatic updates on my PC, seems I don't need your "improvements".
