  Cannot download any modification, with the exception of windows defender updates. download progress meter shows 0% all the time and it cannot install updates. last updates have been made is 12/08. I have auto update turned off and I do it manually updates. I get an Error 8007000 b, but nothing on your microsoft site helps me with this error message. I use this SUITE for anti-virus, spam, spyware protection and there a fire wall which I tried to turn it off, but it does not matter still can not download updates. Please help, I am running out of options to try. I also checked on installed updates and nothing in this list on computer is required/recommended updates on windows update, when I do the search.

  Hi tdigiannurio,

  Thanks for posting your questions to answers.microsoft.com

  Here is some information that should help you with this error.

  If you receive the 8007000 b error when you try to install Windows Vista updates, the Windows file system transaction log is damaged. The transaction log is used by the Windows file system to recover when a file error occurs. To correct this error of update, you clear the log. Here's how:

  To clear the file system transaction log

  1. Click the Start button. In the Search box, type command prompt, and then, in the list of results, right-click command promptand then click run as administrator. 2. In the command prompt window, type fsutil resource setautoreset true C:\. (This assumes that C: is the drive on which Windows Vista is installed. If Windows is installed on another drive, change the drive accordingly letter.) 3. Restart your computer. 4. Download and install the update again.

  If the problem persists after you follow the steps above, go to the Center of Support Windows Update website to try to find more information about the error code or to request support by e mail.

  Let us know if it helps to address the known issue or if additional assistance is needed.

  Kind regards

• My CD-ROM/DVD-Rom drive & the Bison Webcam built into my laptop. Does not work after I upgraded from Vista home premium to Windows 7 Home premium.

  My readers Optiarc DVD - RW AD-7530 ATA Device DVD/CD-ROM & the Bison Webcam built into my laptop. Does not work after I upgraded from Vista home premium to Windows 7 Home premium.
  Although of course, the CD-ROM drive worked during the upgrade.
  I noticed that when I turn firstly on the laptop, the last two lines of the front entry from Windows 7 are the following.
  PXE - E6i:Media Test Failure, Check Cable
  PXE - MOF: Exit PXE Rom
  During the audit of each Properties in Device Manager devices", I learned that they both work correctly.  In the list in the printers and the @Devices the only Webcam shown is also a "USB 2.0 Camera"
  Can someone help me please?
  Best regards
  John

  Besides what abdelhak says:

  The message of PXE boot that you receive when you start your computer has nothing to do with your CD/DVD-Rom drive. Your computer uses a PXE boot method to attempt to load Windows from a location on your network. Since you do not have this configuration, it is safe to ignore it. If it slows down the startup time of your system, contact your manufacturer and ask them for instructions on how to "disable PXE Network Boot of the BIOS.

  Hope this helps,

• What is the disk file part # or download vista home premium upgrade to the 32-bit version of windows 7 Home premium.

  I have a Dell xps 420 desktop computer microsoft vista home preimum sp2 and want to upgrade to windows 7. Go online to shop for the best disc and or the price for this upgrade is very confusing to me to say. I want just the version of windows 7 home preimum, but I see the price for these discs from $80.00 up to $ 300.00 million. I'm sure that they are not the same discs or there was not this price differential.

  I don't care if I get the cd/dvd or a download version, but I don't want any version which requires me to do a custome update as I do not know how to save all my programs and data re - install later. I think I should be able to upgrade for less than $ $100,00.

  Can someone help this old man (81)?   Thank you, Bob s.

  There is no electronic download for Windows 7 and Microsoft have removed most of the editions of sale general retail.

  Your only real option is an upgrade kit. All that would require a custom installation deletes all.

  Dell do not list Windows 7 drivers for this system.

  It would be risky to try something as important as an upgrade of the operating system without a backup and the means necessary to reinstall your system if you wish, how would recover you your data and programs if the computer has failed?

  OK, I've read tons of information on that and I'm stumped.  I have an Epson Stylus CX6600 all-in-one printer.  I have my Windows vista Home premium networking with my 64-bit Windows 7 computer.  I go to the step where the machine Vista attempts to connect to the printer on the network, then it asks a driver.  The driver file is already on the vista machine.  I installed the latest drivers from Microsoft and epson on the Windows 7 machine and he always asks a driver.  Can someone point me to the exact file name and the location of the driver in the vista vista machine so I can simply copy and point to it my windows machine 7.  I did the updates from Microsoft to get all the latest drivers.  Thank you.

  You do not install the Vista drivers on Windows 7 computer.
