Sound and video malfunction with Windows XP service pack 2
2 problems:
(1) after the update of Windows XP Home Edition (service pack 1) for Windows XP service pack 2 (using update windowns - custom) Media Player often has his crush (not smooth) and there is often no image except the sounds and words on the screen.
(2) after the express (recommended) use of service pack 2 update, why don't the Windows XP service pack 1, change to Windows XP service pack 2? I mean when I check my version of Windows XP, it still shows the old version (service pack 1) rather than updating a (service Pack2)?
Thank you very much for your help.
Have a great day,
Ellie

I try to activate the Fax Service. He keeps asking me: a CD with 'Windows Professional Service Pack 3 '. Of course, I don't have such a CD. When I try Microsoft doewnloading they tell me this service pack is 64-bit, but my computer is running 32-bit. Anyone has an idea how to get around this and activate my fax service?
Thank you

Everyone knows this problem.
I have a 5000 Satellite with Windows XP. I installed SP1 and now my sound card does not work.
Any ideas out there?
Does anyone have this problem?
I reinstalled the Yamaha drive a couple of times and always the same: no sound?
I bought this unit in Holland and it was great until the problem of Service Pack. I heard that Comcom was a dealer right here. Maybe I'll have to make to them, if I can't help here?

My Vista system has crashed into two different time after I was told to put in Vista Service Pack 1 level. The system tells me to do Service Pack 1 before I can run Windows 7 64.
Backup of personal data (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then do a format and clean install of Vista 64-bit. Please note that a repair installation (upgrade AKA on-site) won't fix this!
Once installed the clean, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care of everything on the next page before connecting the machine to the internet or a network otherwise and before using a USB key that is not brand new, or has not been freshly formatted:
5 steps to help protect your new computer before going online
http://www.Microsoft.com/protect/computer/advanced/XPPC.mspxAfter taking care of all the foregoing, Windows Update will eventually offer several SP1 prerequisite updates (e.g., http://support.microsoft.com/kb/955430;) ( http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947821) and then SP1 itself. After that you got SP1 installed, you will be able to run Win7 64-bit.
If these procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, good reputation and independent computer (i.e., not BigBoxStoreUSA) repair facility.
Good luck!

problem with automatic updates and Microsoft Update in Windows XP Service Pack 3
My sister has a problem with the automatic updates. He has offered 6 updates and she moved them, but next time, she turned on the computer, he was offered the same 6 updates again. She has set up 5 or 6 times now, but she is always offered the same 6 updates every time she turns on the computer. She tried yesterday to go to the web site Microsoft Update and update his computer, but it runs into the same problem. Microsoft Updates installed updates to update, but after restarting the computer and try to update again, he was offered the same 6 updates.
I try to help fix and I need help.
I tried stopping the service automatic updates, delete the contents of the download folder, update the Microsoft Updates web site and then by restarting the service of updates without result. She also tried to remove the 4 updates, she could find in Add/Remove Programs, but also without result.
Help, please.
Thank you
