• Windows Update cannot verify the update and resists being fixed!

  "The Windows Update cannot currently check for updates, because the service is not running." You may have to restart your computer. "This is on a HP Pavilion dv6000 / dv6426us. The computer has not been used for 3 (?) years. The system is Vista Home Premium SP1. The browser is Internet Explorer 7, version 7.0.6001.18000. Also HP Total Care Advisor is always installed and running a scan that reports of power is good, but this program is of course also obsolete. Since the resumption of employment, Norton Internet Security has been installed. Also installed PC TuneUp Maestro and Maestro own PC. These three seems to work well. I have already used in troubleshooting tool Windows Update / Microsoft Fix - it.  Fixed some things, but the problem persists. Removed many temporary files. Uninstall some programs. Registry cleaning. All this made the computer a lot more lively, but Windows Update still does not work. Also tried Windows Update in safe mode and safe mode with networking: no response.  I think that the file is damaged or missing.  What can I try next? Can I download and install Windows Update manually (I can't find the place where)? And it's risky to use automatic updates?

  Delete Windows.old on your C: drive

  Usually, but not always, after installation of Windows 7 you have a Windows.old folder on your C: drive that contains your files and data from the previous installation of Windows and allows you to go back to a previous version of Windows. Open Windows Explorer and under 'Computer' click the C: drive - if the Windows.old folder is on your hard drive, it will contain all of your files to the Windows system, and it can be removed if you do not need to free up space on your hard drive.

  If she's not here, make sure you can see the Windows.old folder:
  1. click on start, type: hidden
  2. click on 'display the hidden files and folders '.

If you need all the files, you can copy them to another folder and then delete Windows.old. If you do not need anything in the folder, it is safe to delete.

  I tried recovery up to an older date which did not help.  I scanned for malware.  I use Norton 360 it's let it download but I get an error during installation.  The sites are Gamehouse and Big Fish.  I used these sites for years, and I've used this same laptop as well.

  Sorry, it took so long.  I followed all your steps and can now download it again...

  I contacted Big Fish Web host because their issue of not being able to download continues.  They have helped me solve the problem with them.

• I get startup repair screen when I try to boot my laptop from dell inspirion windows 7, I run the scan and detects any errors. When I ran repair usb key received the error 0x400110020000100A

  I get startup repair screen when I try to boot my laptop Dell Inspiron windows 7, I run the scan and detects any errors. So, I tried to use a USB repair for a laptop Dell Latitude Windows 7 pro and I still can't the computer to start. Tried to restore to the factory settings, can not. I have no image, backups, all missing, restore points?

  After that I tried to launch the USB repair I got 0x400110020000100A error code and I received error (0x8007027E) indicating the device will not start without a reboot.

  Anyone know how to fix this?

  Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I'm not computer illiterate, but am not pro either. Just use them not program them or even understand all languages!

  ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

  Dell Inspiron laptop about 4-5 years.

  Running windows 7 Home Edition.

  Does not start little matter what I tried.

  If I remember correctly, I looked in MS-DOS mode and noticed that it said something like "x: win...» "that seemed strange to me because I thought that it should say"c: victory... "but as I said I am not a computer wiz so if anyone can help me, I would appreciate it.

  I'm about to rip the hair off my head with my laptop. My latitude was blue planned, surprisingly I fixed it (don't ask how, you couldn't tell). Then my dell inspiron would not start right after my dell latitude fell out of my truck and landed on the sidewalk, wanted to kill the person, the screen is broken. I can use it but it is very difficult, see a mosquito net and not perfectly clear, works well. lol someone knows somewhere or that would install a new screen for a reasonable price? I live in the Boston area.

  Back to the laptop won't start not, when I ran repair USB key received the error 0x400110020000100A

  Hello

  Thank you for the update on the issue. I appreciate your time and effort in resolving this issue.

  You can try the following methods and check if it helps.

  Method 1:

  You can use the Bootrec.exe tool in the Windows recovery environment (Windows RE) to troubleshoot and repair the following items in Windows Vista or Windows 7:

  • A master boot record (MBR)
  • A boot sector
  • A Boot Configuration data (BCD) store

  Note: When you are troubleshooting startup issues by using the Windows RE, you should first try the Startup Repair option in the System Recovery Options dialog box. If the Startup Repair option does not resolve the problem, or if you must troubleshoot more steps manually, use the Bootrec.exe

  Use the Bootrec.exe tool in the Windows recovery environment to troubleshoot and repair startup issues in Windows
