  It is without a doubt.  There were a few patches published today, and I was able to update all my machines successfully.  This looks more like a virus problem.  Have you run a virus scan recently?  Many times, if you are infected the virus will prevent you to access Windows Update.

  You can also use Microsoft Fix It to reset the Windows Update components: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058.  This could also be your problem.

  Let me know how it goes,

  You are correct George: whenever you access the site Windows or Microsoft Update, Windows Update will take care of updating itself. that is, it looks for updates available from the Windows Update Agent or the customer allows you to update your system.

  Since June 21, 2012 a WUA new version 7. 6. 7600. 256 aired by WU to automatically update itself its version now aged 7. 4. 7600. 226 .

  The problem you see may occur when there is a version mismatch of the file with the Windows Update Agent files, which is a mixture of old files with the new files. This is due to an installation "or damaged."

  You can take a look at your windowsupdate.log file located in your WINDOWS directory, to check the error codes - missing files or failling updated files (especially c:\windows\system32\wuapi.dll, wups2.dll, c:\windows\system32\wups.dll or wuweb.dll).

  Method 1: perform a Clean boot and install Windows Update.

  Put your system to the clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. You must follow the steps in the article mentioned below to perform a clean boot.

  Windows automatically installs the generic driver, otherwise I recommend you download & install audio driver on the website of the manufacturer to check if it helps.

• Problem with installing windows

  Hello

  I bought my turn dell Jan/13 with original operating system (Windows 8). Last week, I got some problems with his knees. so I decided to re - install the operating system and upgrade to windows 10. I downloaded the 8.1 Windows and installed successfully but the problem is it of not accept my key. What should I download windows 8 and install it again. or is there a way around?

  You need not go to 8.1 Windows if you want to go to Windows 10. use of creating media tool to update your system.

  If you can't get Windows 10 to get 10 app windows or Windows update, you always have the option of ISO to upgrade.

  Download Windows 10 media creation tool

  Simply select this option of PC/improvement.

  After you download the Windows 10 installation files using this tool, you can upgrade your existing 10 Windows operating system, or you can create the bootable USB drive or DVD to install Windows 10 key later. You can also save the installation files to the ISO in offline mode file format, if you wish.

• Problem with installing Windows on a hard drive, HARD drive does not get detected after installation

  Original title: help with hard drive of the computer.

  Flow of the problem:

  My aunt tried to install windows 7 on the previous copy of windows 8. Needless to say that it doesn't work and it has messed up the hard drive. So, I bought a vacuum. I formatted the hard drive using my other windows computer to have 2 partitions: a boot partition and system partition, and then used the program WinToUSB to install windows on the hard disk. The reason I did it is, because no matter how many times I changed the BIOS in my laptop of aunts, it wouldn't boot from the DVD player to load the windows software. After a few hours, I found WinToUSB. Once windows has been installed, I plugged it into the laptop. For a few hours, I didn't know what to do, because the computer does not recognize the hard drive (he said: "Not detected"). I decided to start from legacy, and then the screen deals

  «intell...» »

  and a bunch of dates, etc all the stuff on the screen to load legacy if you know what I mean.

  He said "not plugged in the media. Check the power cord.

  Then quickly changed screen before I can read almost anything and it goes to the normal windows screen black (with 4 colors). I said to myself, how can he be loading if the hard drive is not detected... Once it is loaded, he brought me to the blue screen (blue screen of death, if you want) I turned the computer on again, always noticing the hard drive was not detected. I ran all the recovery/repair options I could and turned off the laptop. I came back a few hours ago and I loaded the computer again and went into the BIOS.  He said that the hard drive has been detected and said the news about this, as usual. However, at the start of the legacy of windows loading screen, it said still not detected.  I then started to windows to see since it is now detected if that fixes the blue screen. Yet, there is no. I tried to go to the normal windows and screen remains blue. any ideas?

  Hello Chris,

  Thank you for visiting Microsoft Community.

  According to the description, it seems that Windows was not properly installed on the hard drive. I'm not sure how to work the software from third-party manufacturers WinToUSB and reliable installation process is. Microsoft does not recommend using any third party tool to install Windows on your computer, the use of these third-party tools can cause serious damage to your computer.

  I would say to format the hard drive once more and try to install Windows through normal Windows installation process.

  Refer to the section "using the installation option custom if no operating system is installed" in the thread below.

  Installing and reinstalling Windows

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/installing-reinstalling-Windows#1TC=Windows-7

  If you are not able to install Windows on the hard drive at all, I suggest you to contact the hard drive manufacturer to obtain a diagnosis of material performed on the hard drive.

  Do not hesitate to write back for any further assistance with Windows, we will be happy to help you.

• Problem with installing windows xp the drive mounted iso in windows 7

  Hello everyone, I am currently using Windows 7 and I would like to install Windows xp. However, I do not have a CD player, so I just have to install the .iso files. When I mounted the image Poweriso .iso file and run the installer there, he opened a window with a few options to choose. And I was surprised to see that the option "Install Windows XP" is grayed out, which means that it is not available. Can someone help me to activate Setup option to install the OS?

  You can see the screenshot here: http://www.mediafire.com/?h6v5l3qnx6mfvt8

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  You cannot boot from the iso mounted, you must have iso burned to the disc.

• I was referred to this site. Problems with installing Windows on the new drive.

  Greetings!

  I just installed a new hard drive on my Mini 311 1037. I bought the HP recovery discs. The operating system is Windows 7 Home Premium (I guess it was the correct operating system for that computer). The installation seemed fine, but after installing the drivers, I get the message, "Windows Setup could not configure windows to run on a hardware on this computer."  Then after the restart, after the initial windows screen, I get a message that says "Windows cannot complete the installation. To install Windows on this computer, run the Setup again. "I atempted to iireinstall 3 times. All diagnostic tests are good: the hard drive, the memory. I have no idea what to do next. Help, please?

  If you can read the Microsoft Windows 7 of 25-character license key, you can download a Windows 7 ISO file to burn to a DVD or USB flash drive. The version must match that's installed on your PC as shown on the sticker COST Microsoft fixed on the bottom of the laptop. Like Windows Home Premium.

  Links to downloads of Windows 7 ISO files:

  http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-Windows-7-SP1-ISO-from-Digital-River/

  Use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to convert the ISO file you download. Link and instructions below. You need to a DVD + R or DVD - R. Or a flash drive 4 GB to use the USB method.

  http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msusa/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool#installation

  Use 25 characters on the COA key to activate the installation.

  The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

  Then, go to the page support and driver to install the drivers you need.
