• Fix for common problems associated with Windows Update repeatedly trying to solve the same problem

  When the machine running Windows Update on a Windows XP Professional (SP3 with IE8), the information for the download of the ActiveX bar does not appear. Tried to run the Fix for "Common problems with Windows Update" and it says "Windows Update components must be repaired. Difficulty-it short, reports of success, "Found Themes" saying "one or more components of Windows Update are configured incorrectly". However, still unable to download updates from the information bar does not appear. Repeating the difficulty happens with exactly the same problem i.e. reports etc. but no success still can not download the ActiveX on Windows Update since the information bar never shows up.

  At tried all the suggested solutions I can find for the reported similar problems such as checking the downloads ActiveX security settings, reset Internet Explorer settings, and even resetting Windows Update (Articlce ID 971058) components. Still no luck. Therefore, I am unable to manually check and download updates of Windows security.

  Otherwise my PC works well. Norton Internet Security is installed but did not prevent Windows Update to work on another PC I have. The information bar appears sometimes for other downloads, and it doesn't seem to be a problem on the Windows Update page.

  Please can you help. Thank you.

  No, I'm not not first uninstall IE8 (or IE7) before proceeding with the repair facility...

  Long history, technical, short version: do not uninstall IE8 (and/or IE7) before doing a repair installation (Windows XP only!) leaves the two Internet Explorer and Windows in a State of "confused" or "broken". Your only recourse now is a clean install of Windows (after backup your personal data).

  No, another repair facility won't solve the problem - even if you uninstall IE8 beforehand.

  Follow the instructions in this post of mine in another forum (to-the-letter & in order! ) to restore your computer to a State safe & functional: http://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?f=62&t=44636

  If you need additional assistance with the clean install, please start a new thread in this forum: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_xp-system

  Note: The computer must NOT be connected to the internet or local networks (i.e. other computers) in its current state. All your personal data (e.g., banking online & passwords credit card) must be considered at risk, if not already compromised.

  Wish I had better news for you.  Good luck!

  PS: So that registry cleaners can solve some problems (temporarily, at least), they are not & cannot fix what caused the problem. Compare to treat a broken leg with a stick and a couple of BandAids.

  Anyone know if there is a problem with the "Windows Update" site? As of May 11, 2010 I could not access it for 2 days now.  I get an error report indicating that he has a "problem with the site '... Not sure if it's my computer or the site itself.

  It is without a doubt.  There were a few patches published today, and I was able to update all my machines successfully.  This looks more like a virus problem.  Have you run a virus scan recently?  Many times, if you are infected the virus will prevent you to access Windows Update.

  You can also use Microsoft Fix It to reset the Windows Update components: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058.  This could also be your problem.

  Let me know how it goes,

• Cancel the problems caused by Windows 7 updates

  It's new, the standard operating system of Microsoft for Windows 7 to 45 minutes to work out its kinks and be functional?  From the Auto Update April 30, that's my experience.  My new laptop Toshiba with preinstalled Windows 7 worked beautifully.  Besides the fact that it seems that the user is not supposed to have any control over his own computer, I liked Windows 7 OK, except for the change to the Control Panel, which now seems to have a bunch of useless information and no real way to actually 'control' anything.  However, now that updates 30 April and 12 may have slowed down my system a complete analysis (for the first 45 minutes, anyway), I find myself longing for a new Macintosh.

• Toshiba laptop problem after Gaming/Windows Update.__No solution on the web.

  Hello! I use a Toshiba laptop.

  I was playing a game and windows update popped up!

  He has not yet finished, and my computer turns off. It was late in the night, so I decided to start the computer the next day.

  He will appear with the options
  'Safe Mode '.
  "Safe mode with network.
  "Safe mode with command prompt.
  "Last good known Configuration".
  "Start Windows normally".

  Whichever one I choose Windows XP logo appears, then crashes immediately, restart.

  So I tried to use "do not restart in case of shutdown"

  And the blue screen appears

  "stop: 0x0000007e (0x905c49b8, 0xf792b2b4, 0 x 80000003, 0xf792afb0).

  What is this error? I can't enter safe mode by the way!

  Thanks for your help.

  It's http://support.microsoft.com/kb/330182

  Advanced Troubleshooting use the following methods in the order in which they are presented. Method 1: Make sure that you have enough hard drive firstly space, make sure you have enough hard disk space. The Stop error message can be caused by insufficient disk space.

  If you use safe mode or the Recovery Console to start the computer, delete any unnecessary temporary files, Internet cache files, backup files of stored-program files that contain fragments of disk analysis files (.chk files). Alternatively, you can install Windows XP on another hard drive that has more free space.

  If you cannot start the computer, go to the next method to update the BIOS of the computer.

  For more information on safe mode or the Recovery Console click on the numbers below to view the articles in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

  315222 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315222/) a description of the options to start Windows XP in Safe Mode
  314058 (http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/314058/fr/) Description of the Windows XP Recovery Console

  Method 2: Update the computer BIOS if freeing space on your hard drive has not solved the problem, the BIOS might have to be updated. Use hardware and software vendor contact information items that are listed in the "Références" section to contact the computer manufacturer to obtain the most recent update of the BIOS.

  Note When you update the BIOS, you may have to disable the memory the BIOS options, such as caching or shadowing him, temporarily. Method 3: Disable or update device drivers if you have successfully updated the BIOS and the problem persists, on the computer video card drivers may have to be updated or disabled. Follow these steps to troubleshoot video card drivers:

  1. If a driver is listed by name in the Stop error message, disable or remove that driver.
     • If the error occurs during the startup sequence and the system partition is using the NTFS file system, you may be able to use safe mode to rename or to delete the faulty driver.
     • If the driver is used as part of the procedure of starting the system in safe mode, you must use the Recovery Console to start the computer.
  2. If the Stop error message does not indicate a specific driver, update the video card for the latest drivers.
  3. Disable or remove drivers or services that you recently added.
  4. Check the list of Microsoft hardware compatibility (HCL) to determine if the computer's PCI devices are compatible with Windows XP. For more information about the HCL, see the Microsoft Web site at the following address:
     http://www.Microsoft.com/whdc/hcl/default.mspx (http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/hcl/default.mspx)

  Method 4: Remove unsigned drivers if you have updated the video card drivers and the problem persists, or if you cannot start Windows in safe mode, the problem may be caused by a different driver, not signed. Remove all drivers that are not digitally signed by Microsoft. For more information on how to do this, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

  316434 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316434/) how to perform advanced clean boot troubleshooting in Windows XP

  Method 5: Remove all third-party drivers, you may be unable to determine which third-party driver causes the error. If removing unsigned drivers does not resolve the problem, try to move all third-party driver to the %Windir%\System32\Drivers folder files to another location. Follow these steps to move the third-party driver files:

  1. Use the Recovery Console to start the computer, or start the computer from a different installation of Windows if you have performed a parallel Windows installation.
  2. Create a temporary folder for the driver files. For example, you can create a c:\DriverTemp .
  3. Move all files that do not have a creation date for Windows XP of the 13/08/2001 to the %Windir%\System32\Drivers folder to the temporary folder you created in step 2.

     Warning If the computer relies on pilots third-party IDE or SCSI controller for correct operation, you must identify those driver files and leave them in the %Windir%\System32\Drivers folder.

  4. Restart the computer.
  5. Continue Windows Setup. You can add the files of the driver to the computer, one at a time to identify the faulty driver.

  Method 6: Remove third-party remote control services if you still have the problem after you use the previous methods and the Stop error message contains the name of the file Win32k.sys instead of a file name of the driver, the problem may be caused by a control program to third distance. To remove the service, use the Recovery Console to start the computer, and then delete the file of control service third-party remote.

• Everyone around the Malaysia has problems connecting to Windows Update Server?

  For 4 days, I have the problem using Windows Update. Updates is never to download completely, Windows Update will just stop after failing to download the updates.

  Then I tried to download updates and apply them manually; VS2008SP1ENUX1512962. ISO (Visual Studio 2008 Sp1) is one of the things that I download. This 800 + MB file I've downloaded 3 times on the Microsoft Download site and they are all corrupt. I got a copy uncorrupted file using torrent finally. There are others who are corrupt as well.

  That's why I'm thinking, is there something wrong with the server of Microsoft Update, or the Malaysia connectivity problem? I'm getting an average of 100 Kbps download speed of site except Windows Update - which starts at 30 kbps and after 15 minutes drops to 5 Kbps.

  I just reinstalled a pre - SP3 of XP version. When I tried to download the SP3 I got the message: the site has encountered a problem and cannot display the page you are trying to view. I don't know what to do. Help, anyone?

  Ignore warnings about these packages for computer scientists, or only of the

  NOTE: If SP2 is already installed on your computer, or if the SP1a is installed, go straight to the Service Pack 3 package.

  You are correct George: whenever you access the site Windows or Microsoft Update, Windows Update will take care of updating itself. that is, it looks for updates available from the Windows Update Agent or the customer allows you to update your system.

  Since June 21, 2012 a WUA new version 7. 6. 7600. 256 aired by WU to automatically update itself its version now aged 7. 4. 7600. 226 .

  The problem you see may occur when there is a version mismatch of the file with the Windows Update Agent files, which is a mixture of old files with the new files. This is due to an installation "or damaged."

  You can take a look at your windowsupdate.log file located in your WINDOWS directory, to check the error codes - missing files or failling updated files (especially c:\windows\system32\wuapi.dll, wups2.dll, c:\windows\system32\wups.dll or wuweb.dll).
