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.

• Problem installing Windows Vista Service Pack 1

  Greetings,
  I've been running Windows Vista for a while now. In general, I have no problem. I tried to install Service Pack 1 with a bit of luck.

  My first attempt was to install using Windows Update. When it installs it gives me error 0 x 80070490

  My second attempt was to install it as a Sandalone by Windows.com. He also gave me an error
  0 x 80070490

  I followed the instructions at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947366.
  I tried all resolutions and nothing will work.

  Both times when I try to install it, the bar fills up all the way and then fails (no reboot or anything else) with in a few minutes. It restarts what only it either just fails or not. I tried using safe mode and normal Mode.

  I tried to repair Windows to solve the problem. While the repair done, the computer has restarted and gave me the 'blue screen of death', the only way he could properly load was to load mode without failure. I had to wrap the last know configuration to start normally.

  I'm running out of good ideas please help

  Desperate, try: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947821
  Description of the preparation tool update for Windows Vista for Windows Server 2008 and Windows 7 system

  Usually, the tool is available to computers that could benefit from these tools, but you can manually download the same and see if it helps.

  Unfortunately with your error code, it is usually a necessary repair install, but the damage may be too much even for a repair installation.

  BTW - back up your important files just in case where you don't have to start over.

• Problem with Windows 7 Service Pack 1: the update process crashes during every start/restart

  Hello.

  I downloaded the SP1 for Windows 7 from Microsoft Download Center (I had the Ultimate 64-bit edition initially installed on my computer). I ran the installer and went through the process of updating until the first reboot. Since that time, my system is unbootable not. Windows 7 starts to run and then the SP1 update process runs and applies the changes to the registry and system files. After awhile, the update process freezes and I have to turn off the computer with the power switch. This is repeated again and again each time you start. He stops to date when he reached update number 117880 of 334835 or 334835 117930 (but not always these specific), and he is trying to change some registry entries apparently: 'operation 334835 (\Reg...) 117880 update application', this is what is shown on the screen below the still glowing Windows logo.

  In addition the secure boot mode, startup mode safe with networking, security console startup mode, last known good configuration options do not work. They all start to load but crash after a while (as if the same SP1 update process has been run in silent mode).

  I don't want to reinstall Windows 7 from zero and all the applications that have been installed. The ERD that I generated after my initial installation can not solve the problem, nor the Windows 7 can install DVD. It doesn't let me do an upgrade from the original DVD since it has not be started from the hard drive and then launched from within Windows 7.

  I looked in several discussions of the forum and found that my NTFS partition is marked 'active' as it should.

  I plugged my HARD drive on another computer and have access to its content.

  So is it possible to stop this automatic process and be able to start (in the original state of Windows 7)? At least to re - install Windows 7 via the DVD upgrade mode and then installing SP1 on a little further.

  Perheaps the log files from the SP1 update process could be useful, but I don't know where they are on the HARD drive.

  Thanks for your help.

  Yo_54.

  So is it possible to stop this automatic process and be able to start [...]?

  Hello.

  My startup problem is resolved. Now I can start Windows 7 and use my system again.

  I used the dism.exe tool back updates on hold through a wire found in the TechNet Forums: "C000009A update operation 334565 (\Registry\...) 119595 application error". loading SP1"(see link below).

  I launched WinRE with my Windows 7 installation DVD, selected my C: partition where Windows 7 has been installed, click on the button 'Next', refused to the proposed repair phase, and then chose the prompt for commands and typed:

  DISM.exe / Image: c: \ / Cleanup-Image /RevertPendingActions

  It took less than 15 minutes for the tool to the end I restarted my computer and waited a few operations update, then Windows restarted and more, and finally I was on my homescreen. After my connection, a dialog box been told that SP1 was installed (the winver.exe command showed that SP1 installed too).

  I think that now that I have completely will be re - install Windows 7 in upgrade mode, recheck all the pre-requisites for SP1, uninstall all language but English modules, uninstalling my anti-virus and anti-spyware programs disconnect you from the Internet and run the standalone SP1 install package. I'm going to see if the problem is persistent and keep you posted.

  But first I'll make an image of my C: drive system and store it somewhere safe!

  I found the solution through this thread in the TechNet Forums:

• Windows Vista Service Pack 2 and Startup Repair prevent my laptop to turn on.

  My laptop is running slow so I thought that I would need to update something. It suggested that Windows Vista Service Pack 2 so I started to update, but I remembered that my previous laptop was having problems with Windows Vista Service Pack 2 so I canceled the update.
  I then turned off my laptop later and now when I turn it on it goes to 'Launch Startup Repair', I have let this happen, but can not solve a problem.
  I then tried "Start Windows normally", but it goes back to restart and on-screen 'launch Startup Repair '.
  Then I tried to boot into 'Safe Mode' = nothing
  I tried restoring the system but there is no date available, and he said something like "there is no diagnostic tool.
  I don't know what I can do!

  Hi carlywray,

  Your computer came with Windows Vista preloaded? If so, contact the manufacturer for the disk recovery or a method of recovery of your operating system. If you have purchased a full copy of Windows, see this Microsoft document.

• I can't update windows until I reinstall windows vista service pack 2 CD but I do not have the CD. I have just the product key. How can I reinstall it with the key.

  I tried to update to windows, but get error 80070490 that says I have a corrupted file (CBS Manifest) that is to be updated... so I check the error and it says to uninstall windows and reinstall using the dvd... but I don't have the dvd for windows vista service pack 2... I have the id... product help, my pc is done to the breakpoint until I make updates! I tried Fix - It, and it says error can not continue... I ran to day thought advise that I could upgrade to windows 7... but apparently so that I can fix the problems of windows, I'm stuck. Thanks for any help!

  Hello

  Error code 80070490 claims a repair upgrade install, not an uninstall and clean reinstall.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/Windows-Update-error-80070490

  If you receive the Windows Update 80070490 error, it means that a file (CBS Manifest) that is needed to install updates is corrupt. To correct this problem, you will need repair Windows. Repair Windows will not damage your personal files or the programs that are installed on your computer.

  Have you tried the other option for system update readiness tool in the link I just gave you?

  The System Update Readiness Tool for Windows can correct some conditions that cause Windows Update 80070490 error. You can access and run this tool by reading this Knowledge Base article on the Microsoft Web site.

  And you need a DVD of Vista from Microsoft to do a repair installation upgrade according to the instructions, NOT the normal manufacturer's recovery disks.

  You will need to borrow a Microsoft Vista DVD from a friend or working knowledge.

  Here's how a repair upgrade installation:

  "How to perform a repair for Vista Installation"

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/88236-repair-install-Vista.html

  @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

  And if you can't get a loan from a Vista DVD from Microsoft, you may need to do a reinstall of Vista:

  You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

  They should do this for a small fee.

  To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

  You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

  How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

  "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

  And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

  Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

  Ask them to the proper key sequence.

  And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

  Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.

  If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

  If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

  And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

  And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.
