Satellite a50: Quick Fix Engineering and Windows Update

I was wandering why some of the quick Fix Engineering published by Toshiba refer to problems in October 2003? for example, the most recent for my satellite a50 is http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_driver_details.jsp?ID=29405&OSID=10&drive rLanguage = 13 & selectedLanguage = 13 & driverCountry = 41 & selectedCountry = 0
that refers to a problem of October 2003 (http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS03-044.mspx)

I asked a similar question on this forum (http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=3131&messageID=9527#9527), but now I'm not so sure of the answer I received... Again, if I still have my Windows XP to update (from windowsupdate.microsoft.com) must I apply the miracle solution?

Thank you. Hpop

Hello

I put t know exactly how old is your device, but I know that at this moment, there is no SP2 and your device comes with SP1. Image designed for the contents of your device in a large number of QFES. As Tom says if you want to install Windows XP Home edition, you will probably use SP2. In this case, it is not necessary to install all QFE Toshiba site because they are already included in SP2. As you know, after installation of SP2, your device will be updated automatically.

    in the "driverupdate" info I can find drivers "quick fix engineering": what they mean and does it download them? I use Tecra M2 XP pro SP2 and have automatic windows update
    Greetings

    Hi, Renaud,.

    Hope you are well. The Quick Fix Engineering elements are actually patches from Microsoft. They are the same ones that you will receive the installation of Windows Update.

    If you have automatic updates configured then you will not need to download them from the Toshiba site.

  • 32-bit Vista, System Restore and windows update are suspended.

    This problem started happening almost two months ago. When I turn off computer and windows update tells me that it is updated, I leave. Ive come back hours later to see that my computer never updated and turns off. Ive tried click on windows update to update while I was connected and it still crashes just forever. Today, I think I discovered perhaps the underlying problem. Finally, I got fed up and decided to do a system restore, after hours of research and try all kinds of solutions on these forums (none worked). So now he is suspended from the system restore. Suspicious to me that when the windows update crashes is on the screen where it says create restore point.

    can anyone help please?

    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    You should go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest network drivers wifi and card.

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AS ADMIN - REBOOT after each driver.

    Maybe the other pilots. software and updates to the BIOS, you can get there.

    Control Panel - Device Manager - double-click on a device and check the version.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  • I have problems with the installer of Windows and Windows Update, and the solutions that I found for the two each rely on the other broken system to fix the first.

    I use a laptop HP Pavilion dv4-1220us with Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 1, a 64-bit operating system, and I have problems with Windows Update and Windows Installer. When I try to install programs, I get the following, or substantially similar message without the error code:

    "Error 1719. The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This can occur if Windows Installer is not installed properly. Contact your support team. »

    So I tried to download Windows Installer 4.5 and install it. When I try to start the installation, it always hangs on the first step, "Initializing Installation."

    After searching for a solution to this problem, I found that Windows Update may have a solution. So I downloaded the 64 bit version and got a file named 'file Windows6. 0-KB942288-v2 - x 64. I tried to run this file. He opened a box that said, in order "Prepare for Installation", "Full Preparation", and finally "Searching for Updates ', before you open a second box, which reads" click OK to install the following Windows software update: fix for Windows (KB942288). I clicked on OK in this box, which opened another box, which says at the top "updates are installed" and in a smaller section, "initializing for Installation................... »

    However, no matter how long it works, it never gets past "Setup initialization."... »

    So I tried to run Windows Update in Control Panel. He ran for a while, before giving a message saying "to check the updates, you must first install an update for Windows Update." I clicked on the button that says "install now". He has flashed, a moment, "download and installation of updates' before you go to the"check for Updates"and then he brought back the exact same upward ' to check updates, you must first install an update for Windows Update" message as before. I clicked install now once again, only to go into the exact same loop. After about four times in a loop, I gave up on it.

    So I tried to install Windows Installer 3.1v2, which took a while before saying "not enough memory is available to process this command." and the abandonment of the installation.

    So, I tried to download a program from 'Mr. Fix - it' of Microsoft. It downloaded fine and then failed on installation, because of the same Setup error I received initially.

    Finally, I tried to restart my computer and each solution is represented. Then I clean my computer and each solution is represented.

    In conclusion, the mistakes that I have in Windows Update and Windows Installer cordoned off each other, as the mistakes of each program are based on the other program to be repaired. I'm at my wit's end here. My computer works fine without one, except that I can't install new programs. I can access the internet fine, access files fine, all my scans have developed own... I don't really know what is happening. Can someone help me with this?
