    Hello Andrew,

     

    Thank you for your response.

     

    Given that we have done some troubleshooting steps and it still doesn't work do not the updates manually, there could be some files of the System corrupt operations that might be preventing us to launch the updates.

     

     

    Your best option for this particular question here would be to contact the main helpless Microsoft: 0870 6010 100 (opening hours: Monday - Friday 08:00 - 18:00)

    and ask for the support of Windows Vista, and I'm sure they would be in a much better position to help you with your problem.

     

    I apologize for not being able to help you with this issue, because it is out of my 'Expertise'.

     

    I'm sure you understand that it is a question out of my range of support.

     

    I closed this matter for the moment as unresolved.

     

    Kind regards

    Rosemary.

    Unfortunately, support for Windows Vista won't help me because I have an OS preinstalled (by HP that have also drawn a white) and since I don't have the Vista install I can not do a repair installation DVD. I've only had this PC for about four months, my first with Vista Home Premium 64-bit and ended about all my stuff on it from loading. The last thing I want to do is a complete system restore!

    Can anyone help please?

    Kind regards

    Andrew

    Outlook Express, when I send the attachment voluminous few people I get the error code 550 5.0.0. Quota exceeded when writing, cannot create output only to a person, the rest of them get OK. What's this problem on my end, or on the other side?

    If you get a message from the demon, then its likely to their end.  You can do a CTRL-F3 on the message of demon and see if it contains more information in terms of what generated server.  You can always try to split apart the message and see if she gets then.

  • I have an error code Stop 0 x 00000050 on a blue screen when I turn on my pc and there is nothing I can do.

    Hi I was using my computer and I went to a Web site. It is then loaded something that resembled the command prompt. It came then with a blue screen. I had these before, but after restarting my laptop everything worked normally again. When I turned it back on, he asked what I want to do e.g. start in safe mode. I tried all the and he arrives with windows at the loading screen for a split second and then returns to the blue screen. Everything I try just brings back me to the blue screen. I still have the disks that came with my laptop I f it's any help. Its xp edition and home.

    aaron1122,
    Well, it sounds as if you might have picked up a virus (possibly).  I hope you have your data backed up.  If you see a real error code then after return what it is.  I'll try to get back to you if possible (it seems all MVPS and people intelligent people are hanging out in Win7 and Vista forums-XP is kind of old).  But hey there are some of go us around. :)   If you do not see the error msg, then on the boot selection screen select the option for 'Stop on error' (I can't think the real verbage but it's something like that).  Then you can get an error code.  If you get any errors, make sure that you have tried the steps in this thread: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/xprepair/thread/901f9138-7a73-42f2-86ed-00c7fef3b77e
    Then if you can boot into safe mode with command prompt and run "sfc/scannow" you will need the XP disc for this.

    If all else fails or you just want to get on the fast track, you can use your recovery disk and do a factory restore.  (Most of the time) will delete everything on your PC and update you 1.  If you go this route, make sure to get antivirus and backup of your data in the future.

    Hope this helps. QQ learn manage!

  • Get the error code 641, cannot install Windows updates.

    Reluctant to do a reinstall of windows.  I had the same problem, find the same useless information on a cure.  I did a reinstall of windows (Vista) and partially by installing the updates of windows I ran into the same problem again, the windows installer does not.  Even from scratch will get not anywhere, leaving you at least your system as it stands leaves can be used instead of a partially updated with no program system.

    I wonder if Apple has this kind of problem?

    In the case of an error in probe (4SNS), to determine what type of sensor is referenced, look for his first letter, which should be 'I' for the current "V" or "T" for temperature, voltage.

  • 4SNS/1/40000000 error code: VDOR - 18.678 &amp; 18.679

    MBP early 2011: I just ran the AHT twice, the first round gave me an error code of 4SNS/1/40000000: VDOR - 18.678, second inning gave the code 4SNS/1/40000000: VDOR - 18.679. Does anyone know what are these error codes? My best guess is probably the RAM, I have (2) modules of 8 GB 1600 Mhz DDR3 OR wireless networking equipment installed. I've noticed recently while multitasking, the wifi connection seems to cling and web pages will not load/downloads will pick up. But the way in which applications will be blocked for 60 seconds makes me think of a bad situation of RAM I have had in the past. Any help would be greatly appreciated since the nearest bar genius lies in 2 1/2 hour. Thank you!

    No RAM - 4SNS is a sensor error.

  • Transcend Jet 360 Lite SD care &amp; "the operation cannot be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code - 50)"

    Have used the SD Transcend 360 256 MB card for data storage with success during the last 6 months on my MBP to mid-2014.  Installed their wake from sleep early support software.

    Above error code invite you in this context: I wake up Mac in the morning after sleep.  Transcend icon "wake up" and appear on the desktop (as it should).  I check disk utility and the card is recognized.  HOWEVER, about 1/3 of those mornings, despite appearing and functional map icon (folder open when I click on it), when I try to write/copy a file or folder to it, I get the above error code?  For about a week I missed that everything seemed normal.  My current 'fix' is to eject the card (requires a 'forced ejection"which I'm concerned could damage the card?), but the card ejects without delay.  90% of the time when I remove and reinsert the card, the operating system recognizes, all right.  (There are a dozen times when I had to reboot for it to be recognized.)

    All the others did this experiment with the Transcend (I submitted a request for tech support to them with a persistent response of 'Question Mac'... (LOL).  This error has been noted several times on the Forum discussion, but in the context of external drives and with no apparent solution.  FYI, I use the Transcend (in addition to external systems) b/c it works essentially like a hard drive internal and I use it mainly for Google Drive perfectly... except for the above inconveniences.  Thanks in advance!

    This is the Office Mac Pro forum. I asked that your post moved to the forum of laptop MacBook Pro or another appropriate forum.
