    Hi Electrocuteud,

    You have access to a Windows Vista installation disc? If so, follow the steps in this document to perform an InPlace upgrade. This will reinstall Vista without making any changes to the files and programs on the computer. Even if your data and programs must be safe, it is always advisable to make sure that you have a recent backup before major changes on the computer.

    try to download windows vista service pack 2. Last update was on May 21, 2010. For a few weeks or months, the computer can be terribly slow. Often a hard drive rattle sound. For this, I tried anti-spyware, last week I installed and ran AdAware from lavasoft. It found nothing except two small cookies. A few weeks earlier, I had done the same thing using windows Defender. Also nothing. Along with a check disk hard I did not find much either. What end of the lifecycle for this computer, now about 3 years? He was one of the first available vista computers.

    After installing Windows Update Windows Vista Service Pack 2 (KB948465) my computer slowed down and

    I uninstalled, or rather I went the restore point on my computer and uninstalled it.

    Why Microsoft comes up with these updates?  Very often, these mess my computer updates.

    Never, EVER use system restore to 'Cancel' an update, Service Pack, or upgrade of IE!  Instead, uninstall the update, Service Pack, or the IE patch & reboot.  If that does not resolve the problem, then try System Restore.

  • Windows Vista Service Pack 2 for update (KB948465) systems focus on x 64

    Hi all:

    For several weeks, I get a daily reminder to install the update "Windows Vista Service Pack 2 for x 64-based systems (KB948465)", but whenever I try to install it, it ends up by default, which gives 80246007 error code. What happened probably 30 times. It's driving me crazy, and at this point, I would like to know if it is still necessary to have. If this is the case, how can I get to install correctly? If this isn't the case, I can't the notification go away?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    My problem has been resolved, turns out I tried to download the wrong version. My PC is an autonomous one, and for reasons unknown to me, I chose the Service Pack1 for 5 languages. Had a discussion with a friend, maybe something he said... in any case I went back to the site download and tried Service Pack1 for 1 language! Has worked as a

    Charm. After the installation of Service Pack 1, all the others were easy.

    My sincere apologies. And thanks a lot to the Team of Microsoft and and al.
