Need help with windows update please!

Tried for months now to get windows update to work properly. I still see a message pop up in my lower toolbar, that says: windows cannot verify the updates, with a red x. I'll try to update manually and it shows 0% all the time. When I go and check to see if there have been updated, it will show a little from time to time, who have downloaded successfully, but believe that is made during a unrolled task he is set to make only 1 or two from time to time will show. I don't know what else to do. It's Windows Vista. Help, please... My Windows defender seems to fine day. Help, please... Thank you...

Hello

I guess that part of the question could be a driver which is really old or similar should not be loaded.

This exit Windows updates on (after you have access) and stop the updates of the driver to load.

  • Need help with Windows Update, error

    Whenever I try to run Windows Update, I get an error Code 80070490.  Any suggestions?

    Hi Claire,
     
    The error you receive occurs if there is corruption in the manifest of component maintenance base.  The only way to fix this is to do a "repair" of Windows Vista installation.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/958044/en-us
    The 'repair' installation (upgrade on-site) will not affect your installed programs or data.  Just make sure that you are already connected to your computer when you start the installation.  Do not boot from the DVD .

    If the installation does not start automatically when you insert the DVD, run setup.exe from your DVD player.

    • When the Setup program starts and the install now screen, click install now .
    • Note When you receive the important Get updates for installation message, click go online .
    • Click upgrade when the which type of installation you want? appears

    Please let us know if this solves the problem for you.

    Follow these steps to try to solve your problems of boot.

     

     

    Restore point:

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

    NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

    ISO Burner:http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Data recovery:

    1. slave of your hard drive in another computer and read/save your data out there.

    2. put your Hard drive in a USB hard drive case, plug it into another computer and read/save from there.

    3 Alternatively, use Knoppix Live CD to recover data:

    http://www.Knopper.NET/Knoppix/index-en.html

    Download/save the file Knoppix Live CD ISO above.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm

    Download the Vista software from the link above.

    After installing above ISO burning software, right click on the Knoppix ISO file > copy the Image to a CD.

    Knoppix is not installed on your PC; use only the resources of your PC, RAM, graphics etc.

    Change the boot order in YOUR computer/laptop to the CD/DVD Drive 1st in the boot order.

    Plug a Flash Drive/Memory Stick, BOOT with the Live CD, and you should be able to read the hard drive.

    When the desktop loads, you will see at least two drive hard icons on the desktop (one for your hard drive) and one for the USB key.

    Click on the icons of hard drive to open and to understand which drive is which.

    Click the icon for the USB drive and click on "Actions > Change the read/write mode" so you can write to disk (it is read-only by default for security reasons).

    Now to find the files you want to back up, just drag and drop them on the USB. When you're done, shut down the system and remove the USB key.

    See you soon.

  • Need help with the update of Windows (OS-Windows 7)

    Hello world

    Recently, I met a problem with Windows update on my laptop (OS-Windows 7). Everything is fine with it, but when I try to install updates (recommended or optional) window says that it downloads the updates, but the progress remains to 0KB and 0% downloaded status. I tried to restart the service of windows update with utility update of windows running, but without success. However, I was able to install updates, most of them associated with Microsoft.NET framework 3.5.1 (I'm not sure of the version of the .NET Framework is installed in my computer). But when I tried to install other updates updated security windows or .NET Framework 4. XX version update, he gave the same answer that I mentioned above.

    I can give my specifications and other information required if necessary.

  • Need help with Windows 7 key.

    I have a laptop that I had to change the HARD drive due to a complete failure.  I had a Windows 7 key I know has been good and have never used, purchased as part of a package of pc 3.   Now the installation tells me that this is not a valid key.  I paid almost $150.00 for this set of 3 installs for Windows 7, about 5 years ago.

    The old HDD is dead, I tried to connect with a USB key and nothing.   The laptop was working fine with WIndows 10, then the portable HARD drive is simply dead.  I need help with a new key, or at least the one I have to work.  The new drive HARD won't have not all partitions or any attached former windows key.  I can't get past the check of Windows screen.

    Need help please.

    You must use the product key located on the COA sticker (at the bottom of the laptop, sometimes inside the battery cover or access. Once you have located the product key, and then follow the instructions below to change the key of the key from the factory to the key on the sticker.

  • need help with the Update statement

    Hello
    I received a question in a course and I tried my best to respond, and now my brain is giving. I would really appreciate help with the update statement. I don't mind if you do not validate a solution, a little nudge in the right direction would be really useful. I'll post that I got.

    THE QUESTION
    / * For these agents disabled on more than seven missions, change their date of deactivation of the first date of deactivation of all the agents that have been activated in the same year as the agent that you update currently.
    */

    I have it divided into parts, here is my select statement to agents disabled on more than 7 missions, which produces the deactivation_dates in the agents table that I want to update...
    SELECT
    s.deactivation_date
    FROM
    (
    SELECT
    a.deactivation_date,
    count(m.mission_id) as nomissions
    FROM
    agents a
    INNER JOIN
    missions_agents m
    on
    a.agent_id=m.agent_id
    GROUP BY
    a.deactivation_date
    ) s
    WHERE
    s.nomissions>7 AND s.deactivation_date IS NOT NULL
    .. .and the code for the first date of deactivation for each year of activation agent
    select 
    a2.deactivation_date
    from
    agents a2
    where a2.deactivation_date= 
    (
    select min(a.deactivation_date)
    from 
    agents a
    where to_number(to_char(a.activation_date,'YYYY'))=to_number(to_char(a2.activation_date,'YYYY'))
    )
    ..... I am not real to marry these two statements together in the Update statement. I can't extract each date of deactivation produced in the first select statement and their match against the first date of deactivation in the year they have been activated for the second select statement.

    Any help greatly appreciated... :))

    I began to wonder how things would :)

    user8695469 wrote:
    First of all why he chooses the date the earliest of all agents

    UPDATE  AGENTS_COPY AC /* (1) */
    SET     DEACTIVATION_DATE = (
    SELECT  MIN(AGS.DEACTIVATION_DATE)
    FROM    AGENTS_COPY  AGS
    ,       AGENTS_COPY AC /* (2) */
    WHERE   TRUNC(AGS.ACTIVATION_DATE,'YEAR') = TRUNC(AC.ACTIVATION_DATE,'YEAR') /* (3) */
    )
    

    He recovers as soon as the subquery has not been correctly set in the SET clause. It seems you are trying to update a correlated, but we are still having a conceptual shift. I have added a few comments to your code above and below will explain.

    (1): when you do a correlated update it is useful to the table alias that you did right here.

    (2): this table statement is not necessary and is the reason why the FIRST deactivation date is selected. The alias that you use (3) refers to THIS table, not the one defined in the update statement. Remove the line indicated by (2) in the FROM clause and a correlated update will happen.

    and secondly why is it to update each row, when I thought that I'm just the lines where the agents are disabled and missions > 7? Pointers on where I'm wrong would be very appreciated. (SQL = stupid query language!) :)

    user8695469 wrote: then why is it to update each row, when I thought that I'm just the lines where the agents are disabled and missions > 7? Pointers on where I'm wrong would be very appreciated. (SQL = stupid query language!) :)

    
    WHERE EXISTS
    (
    SELECT
    a.agent_id,
    count(m.mission_id)
    FROM
    agents a
    /* INNER JOIN AC ON AC.AGENT_ID = A.AGENT_ID */
    INNER JOIN
    missions_agents m
    ON
    a.agent_id=m.agent_id
    GROUP BY
    a.agent_id,
    a.deactivation_date
    HAVING
    count(m.mission_id)>7 AND a.deactivation_date IS NOT NULL
    )
    

    Once again this problem is similar to the question above that a correlation update doesn't work. Test existence of lines in an EXISTS subquery. Since your subquery is not related to the table that you are trying to update, it will be always return a line and, therefore, it returns true for EACH LINE in the AGENTS table. To limit the game to only agents > 7 missions results, you need to add a join condition that references the table in your update statement. I added one above (with comments) as a sample.

    I recommend you look over all material that you have associated with correlated subqueries, including documents that I posted above. This seems to be what you're having the problem more with. If you need me to explain the concept of correlated queries any better please let me know.

    Thank you!
