  Hello
  I am trying to install Windows Virtual PC and Windows XP mode on my computer toshiba laptop. The compatibility tool h/w PC said that my PC is h/w support, assisted virtualization (BIOS and processor support for virtualization extensions).

  I tried several options suggested as
  (a) restarts - did not work
  (b) netstop wuauserv, wicks, rename the softwaredistributionfolder, netstart these services (the two) and try windows complete update - windows update has started but I still couldn't install the KB958559

• __Certains updates could not be installed. When I click on yellow shield.

  Some updates could not be installed. Update of security for Win XP (KB973869).
  What it means. Thank you.

  I finally got fed up with the constant reminders to install the updates so I uninstalled Office 2003, rebooted and reinstalled.

  Updates install now without problem.

  All fixed.

  I think there should be an easier way to solve this problem.

• Some updates could not be installed: failure on the following security updates - KB974811 KB974556

  Please help me solve this problem.  I have automatic updates set to say "updates are ready for your computer.  Click here to see these updates'; Here is the little yellow icon in the system tray low to the right of my screen.  What happens when I click on this icon is usually I then click 'express install' (and non-personalized) and then press "install".

  My computer sometimes slows down a bit that it downloads / installs these updates and which can be quite a pain in the thigh because it effects everything that I'm working at the moment, and of course because you have to restart the computer.  I have external hard drives 4 or 5 so I to sequentially turn them off one at a time by ejecting them, turn off the computer and then start it back up and restart the hard drives.

  In any case - I can never remember to "SOME UPDATES COULD NOT BE INSTALLED the SCREEN" so I'm at a loss to know what to do.  My computer is perpetually slow because the small yellow Update icon sits in the systray continually trying to draw attention to me and when I do the same thing continues to be time and again - failure!   I tried closing down my antivirus and windows firewall, but nothing helped.

  your help would be much appreciated, either tell me how these updates to get the update of my systray icon, or to get updates of pit.

  According to belarc Advisor - I am running:

  Windows XP Media Center Edition Service Pack 2 (build 2600)
  3.00 gigahertz Intel Pentium 4
  cache of 16 kilobytes main memory
  secondary memory 2048 k-cached

  SUPERAntiSpyware (although it is installation not not at the auto of the msconfig, so its off to the update)
