Problems with service Pack 2

I installed service Pack 2 on vista and it has not finished, so I had to stop it manually. Windows Update says it failed.  I installed again.  After that he copied, he said it was already installed and closed. Now I have trouble downloading programs such as fab8. I can not find the service Pack 2 on my pc to uninstall it. What now?  Can you help me???

Thank you

  • Problems with Service Packs - when you try to install Service Pack 2, it says I have to install SP1. When I try to install SP1, it says that I have already.

    My automatic update did not work, so I went to the site to try to download Service Pack 2, one seemed to have trouble with my computer. After I downloaded it, I tried to run, but he said I had to download Service Pack 1. So I did it. When I try to run this file, it says I have already installed Service Pack 1. So I tried to restart the Service Pack 2, but she is always claiming that I need Service Pack 1. I don't know what I'm supposed to do. Can anyone help? I'd be happy.

    Hi mistyrayns


    You can check if the below steps help-
    Step 1:
    I suggest you to check if you have information that service pack 1 is present on the computer. You can click
    Start and run. Then type msinfo32 and press ENTER. Check if Service pack 1 is present in the information provided.

    Step 2:

    If you have service pack 1 installed, and mentioned in the information from the computer, then I suggest you refer to the article below and uninstall service pack 1 computer.

    Step 3:

    I hope this helps.

  • Problem with Service Pack 1 free several times.

    When I go to updates, it tells me to install an important update which is still service pack 1. It is installed about 10 times, but when I try to install service pack 2, it won't install saying that service pack 1 must be installed. Help! It drives me crazy and wasting so much time, because of course, he doesn't tell me that service pack 2 cannot be installed until the end thanks to all! Have a nice day

    bastyav,
    We use the exact and some error message in more detail on the issue.  This problem occurs with any file on the disk or only some of them?  You are logged as administrator?  Has anything changed recently (hardware or software)?

    The first thing I would say to run a Virus scan and malware.  If you do not have an antivirus program, then you can get one here: http://www.microsoft.com/Security_essentials/

    If there are no problems found then not try the following steps:
    Run the following commands.

    Chkdsk /r

  • I have Windows XP Media Center Edition Version 2002 with Service Pack 3 and I tried to run Media Center but I get an error message with ehshell.exe.

    original title: error with ehshell.exe

    I have Windows XP Media Center Edition Version 2002 with Service Pack 3 and I tried to run Media Center but I get an error message with ehshell.exe. Could you help me?

    This problem exists since the 1st Media Center. SP2 and SP3 had a difficulty, but it is obvious that it doesn't always. The same problem still exists in Vista today with a lot of other carried over from XP. System restore would work, but you do not have any good restore points so reinstall an operating system seems to be your only option.

    You probably don't want to do an OS reinstall you need for Media Center, but since it does not at all, you might want to play then remove the Media Center updates and or SP3 and reinstall them.

    See you soon

    The site is authentic.  You have two options when you do your relocation:

    Method 1

    1. Download SP3 form the Microsoft site and burn it to a cd or copy it to a flash drive.
    2. Reinstall Windows with your original Windows XP CD.
    3. Use the copy of SP3 that you burned on the CD or copied to the flash drive and update the machine to SP3.  Note that if you have an original CD of 'gold' of Windows XP without service pack that you install SP1a or SP2 before you install SP3, SP2 is available here , download and save it with SP3 before making your relocation.

    Method 2

    1. Download SP3 from the Microsoft site and it wake to your Windows XP CD.
    2. Install Windows XP with your slipstreamed CD and your installation will be in SP3, when installation is complete you will not need to install service packs, you'll just have to do some other updates that have been released after SP3.

    The http://lifehacker.com/386526/slipstream-service-pack-3-into-your-windows-xp-installation-cd is legitimate, it only gives you instructions on how to create and burn a CD of SP3 slipstreamed Windows XP.  If this seems too daunting then use method 1 to install Windows.

    Both methods are very good but method 2 allows a nicer cleaner installation, everything is installed to SP3 level and there are no remnants of previous service packs.  While creating the slipstreamed CD may appear to be a time consuming task, in the end, it will be a time saver and afterwards if you ever have problems with the installation of Windows you may need this cd SP3 slipstreamed to all repairs on the installation.  You can create the SP3 cd now and do it ready and at hand for future needs.

  • Centro not sync-ing for Win XP Home Edition with Service Pack 3

    My new Palm Centro can't synchronize Palm Desktop running on Windows XP Home Edition with Service Pack 3.  The Palm "getting started" Troubleshooting (very polite and free) told me I could go back to Service Pack 2, or upgrade to Vista.  There is a kind of incompatibilities between SP3 and current HotSync Manager.  I'm going to buy a Mac before I go to Vista, and do move back is unattractive.  Anyone know of another work around?

    The problem was that Agendus 4.31 does not work with Palm Desktop 6.x.  You must upgrade to a newer Agendus.  After some research by me and iambic, the manufacturers of Agendus, we discovered that I was given bad advice about the compatibility of the Agendus older and latest Palm Desktop.  Once I bought and installed an upgrade, things started working properly.
