  I couldn't after several attempts to install Windows Vista Service Pack 2 (KB948465).  I finished all of the instructions that will appear on the screen to fix this problem and nothing works.  I'm not a PC geek and want just to get this update loaded.  I hope that this will solve the constant stop my IE WHENEVER I use it.  I'm at a point where I want to just remove Vista and go back to XP.  I NEVER had a problem with it.

  Please contact something that can do a non-techie.  I look at all these forums, but I don't really know how to do all this.  So, unless there are instructions step by step, I'm a lost soul.

• Windows Update of Windows Vista Service Pack 2 (KB948465)

  After installing Windows Update Windows Vista Service Pack 2 (KB948465) my computer slowed down and

  I uninstalled, or rather I went the restore point on my computer and uninstalled it.

  Why Microsoft comes up with these updates?  Very often, these mess my computer updates.

  Never, EVER use system restore to 'Cancel' an update, Service Pack, or upgrade of IE!  Instead, uninstall the update, Service Pack, or the IE patch & reboot.  If that does not resolve the problem, then try System Restore.

  Hi Joy,.

  Let us work together to solve this problem.

  During the installation of Windows Vista SP1, this problem occurs when a third-party application holds open a file or locks a file that the Service Pack installer should use. For example, an application third-party antivirus or antispyware may cause this problem. I suggest you temporarily uninstall any antivirus software and check if you are able to install the service pack. Please do not forget to reactivate once the process is complete.

  Method 1: Alternatively, you can reset Windows Update components.

  Method 2: I ask that you download and run the system update readiness tool and check if you are able to install the service pack.

  I tried to update to windows, but get error 80070490 that says I have a corrupted file (CBS Manifest) that is to be updated... so I check the error and it says to uninstall windows and reinstall using the dvd... but I don't have the dvd for windows vista service pack 2...

I ran to day thought advise that I could upgrade to windows 7... but apparently so that I can fix the problems of windows, I'm stuck. Thanks for any help!

  Hello

  Error code 80070490 claims a repair upgrade install, not an uninstall and clean reinstall.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/Windows-Update-error-80070490

  If you receive the Windows Update 80070490 error, it means that a file (CBS Manifest) that is needed to install updates is corrupt. To correct this problem, you will need repair Windows. Repair Windows will not damage your personal files or the programs that are installed on your computer.

  Have you tried the other option for system update readiness tool in the link I just gave you?

  The System Update Readiness Tool for Windows can correct some conditions that cause Windows Update 80070490 error. You can access and run this tool by reading this Knowledge Base article on the Microsoft Web site.

  And you need a DVD of Vista from Microsoft to do a repair installation upgrade according to the instructions, NOT the normal manufacturer's recovery disks.

  You will need to borrow a Microsoft Vista DVD from a friend or working knowledge.

  Here's how a repair upgrade installation:

  "How to perform a repair for Vista Installation"

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/88236-repair-install-Vista.html

  @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

  And if you can't get a loan from a Vista DVD from Microsoft, you may need to do a reinstall of Vista:

  You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

  They should do this for a small fee.

  To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

  You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

  How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

  "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

  And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

  Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

  Ask them to the proper key sequence.

  And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

  Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.

  If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

  If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

  And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

  And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

• driver_power_sate_failure, Windows Vista Service Pack 2

  Hello. my computer crashes after I connect to a USB modem after you install Windows Vista Service Pack 2 on June 4, 2009.  Under Windows Vista SP1, my laptop works fine when I use USB modem (Huawei model E160 - Globe visibility) and I can connect to the internet.  When I attempt a connection to the internet, the screen message is: "the device is in use or not properly configured" and I can't connect to the internet. This time, he began to hang when stop. Any help for the solution of this problem so that I can connect to the internet wherever I go. I'm here in the Philippines. My no contact. is .

  Allan H. Balucan,
  Because this problem occurred after you installed service pack 2, you need to maybe uninstall and reinstall the drivers and software for your modem.  It seems that the pilot may have gotten damaged during the process of update somehow.  I would recommend that as the first thing to try.

  You can also try runnng the System File Checker to see if there is no corrupted file:
  To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:
  Click Start and type cmd in the box start the search.
  Right click on cmd in the list programs, and then click Run as administrator.
  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue
  At the command prompt, type the following line and press ENTER:

  When the analysis is complete, test to see if the problem you are experiencing is resolved.

  Hi Electrocuteud,

  You have access to a Windows Vista installation disc? If so, follow the steps in this document to perform an InPlace upgrade. This will reinstall Vista without making any changes to the files and programs on the computer. Even if your data and programs must be safe, it is always advisable to make sure that you have a recent backup before major changes on the computer.

• Updated my computer to Windows Vista Service pack 2 for x 64 function foires systems

  Okay, so I have recently updated this Windows Vista Service pack 2 for x 64-based systems.

  After the update and restarting, I connected only to find myself staring at a blank white screen. However, I managed to hit the keys ctrl + alt + delete and go to the Task Manager to launch explorer.exe through the "new task...". ' button.

  This brings me to my normal desktop, but none to start startup programs and CPU usage is 100% which makes the performance of my laptop more slow.

  Sometimes I try to restart the laptop and it starts normally after the connection, but that happens only about 15% or less of the time.

  Is there a way I could resolve this problem and I function normally again?

  BTW,

  I don't have the CD of Windows Vista or install, so I can't really replace him.

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  Hi DaColossus,

  Method 1

  I suggest that you perform the system restore before installing Windows vista service Pack 2 on the computer.

  System Restore: frequently asked questions

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/system-restore-frequently-asked-questions

  Method 2

  Once the service pack 2 for Windows vista is uninstalled from the computer, I would say that repair you system files on the computer by running SFC scan.

  The analysis may take some time, so be patient. Windows allows to fix corrupt or missing files it finds. If the information of the installation CD is required to fix the problem, you may be asked to insert your Windows Vista installation CD.

• After the release of windows vista service Pack 2 and flash 10 my system continues to blue screen

  After the last update of windows vista service Pack 2 and flash 10 that my system continues to blue screen, the solution has advised windows that will fix it is to uninstall flash and reinstal, it dosent solution work any ideas? I tried to roll back to Flash 9 and it's less, but happens again... someone has any ideas?

  First, uninstall Flash to make sure that's not the problem.  If the problem persists and if the problem is related to the installation of Vista SP2 (as seems to be the case), then Support Microsoft offers free technical support for installation of Vista SP2 issues at: https://support.microsoft.com/oas/default.aspx?prid=13014&gprid=582034&st=1&wfxredirect=1&sd=gn.  They are experts on these issues and you should take advantage of the offer, although it is still free.  I'm sure they will be able to help you.  Minimize (but do not deny) the update of Flash and to focus on the installation of SP2 when you explain the problem.

  I hope this helps.  If this isn't the case, after return and we'll see what we can do.

  Good luck!

  Hi racechasser,

  Thank you for using the answers.microsoft.com forum.

  .  .  Please download the service pack again. It may have been a corrupted download.p >

  You can ensure that a download manager is used for this process, so not yet of corruption that happens.   Search live.com or your search engine preferred download manager and select the one sure what you will find.

  Here is a link to the service pack.  https://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=B0C7136D-5EBB-413B-89C9-CB3D06D12674&displaylang=en

  Another way to look at this question is to get information of the event viewer on the failure that occurred.  To review event viewer / click on the ORB Start / computer right click / Select manage / select event viewer.

  Find the information in Event Viewer on the failure of the update installation and provide this information on the forum.  As well as if there is an error, you receive what it is and ID # is.

  Safety Note: always have on hand a good backup before you start any installs/updates/or diagnosis of troubleshooting.
