Update is under Firewall started

OK need a little help will try to do that's short and sweet. After years of 5 1/2 of hicups broken registrys etc. I decided to reinstall the XP PRO operating system, first tech has been a disaster, 2nd tech not better, at least 3 knew what he was doing. OK so he got about 90% properly installed with a few minor missing files and 2 discs that cannot be found. Updates began Friday 21 was first 138 XP security Ie 8, etc. the following updates in smaller batches to Sunday, no problem.

last 2 However on reboot at startup to pop up the firewall is disabled, went to control panel - open wirewall setting and of course, it has been disabled? After the last update and Firewall off I got not a single update through the custom configuration on the update page. Called Microsoft said that there have been other people with the same problem would pass me to level 2. level 2 was told that he would not help unless I paid for the warranty service. Ow to solve a problem with their update service? Guess they want the rest of use either pay one way or another, if we do not buy a new operating system. What a shame I'd wait 9 which is supposed to be compattable for XP.

Thanks for the quick response guys, same for both

Well I seem to have understood that it works, but somewhat a mystery. Downloaded from the page of microsoft windows update. He immeiately began to find updates, yippie! rebooted and everything seems to happen very well, no pop ups - n ° firewall disabled. Went to the start menu to check if updates have shown / work, yip and has continued to add updates and reboot without any problem.

Seems to have been blocked somehow and reinstall it seems have allowed.

Thanks again for your suggestons will save and if necessary will refer. Well I guess I'll order my new Dell now, lol still need to run XP PRO for 1 program that I can't read any other OS.

Have a great day/night

    Why did after downloading Windows security updates that Windows Firewall starts immediately after the connection?   This is happening with my PC and netbook, I almost hesitate to download the safety of dates in the future

    Hello

    1. What is the security update article?
    2. are there any other security software installed on your computer?

    If you have any third-party security software installed on your computer, I suggest you to disable the security software and then check if it helps.

    Note : If you need to temporarily disable the security software, you should reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks

    In the thread above, I was following the post on 30 August.  According to Option A, I completed step 5 for the uninstallation of McAfee Security.  At this time, my network card has stopped working.  On the recommendation of the officer, I posted to the Malwarebytes forum.  The officer determined Malwarebytes that I don't have a malicious software.  I ended up posting on forum McAfee to get my network card works again.  Then I reinstalled McAfee and start to run Windows Update.

    I started with Option A, step 8 to reset Internet Explorer using http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737.  The difficulty it has worked very well.

    [2] if I do a clean install, not only what I need to reinstall Windows and all my applications, I also have to reinstall the drivers... Etc. ?

    [3] I think I have the disks supplied with the PC system. Is it better to use than to use the recovery partitiion?

    [4] preventing me from simply infect the whole PC again?

    A1. Yes, and it was my recommendation in August, too.

    A2. Yes.

    A3. Only not really well using the restore Partition hidden to make the "destructive recovery" will include all drivers, etc., that have been installed at the factory.

    A4a. Yes, a real possibility.

    A4b. You run at least three 3 tests on the backup data before restoring one (1) with your installed & updated up-to-date anti-virus application (for example, Microsoft Security Essentials) and two 2 with good reputation, free online scans (e.g., ESET;) Bit Defender; Kaspersky; HouseCall; (F - Secure).

  • "Windows could not update the configuration to start the computer" error during the upgrade of Vista in Windows XP

    I have a laptop Dell Inspiron 1505, that is running Windows XP Media Center Sp3. I'm doing a place in upgrading to Vista since the disks to upgrade Dell... Everything's fine until the 'Expansion of the files' [27%], then the installation fails with this message: "Windows could not update the configuration to start the computer. Installation cannot continue. Any changes made to your computer during the upgrade". I did a google search for a fix that involves changing a value in the registry in the HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ {4D36E976-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} for example change the value to PartMgr Upperfilters. Unfortunately, this value was the default for my registry key changes could be made. Some other fixes involved the renaming of Upperfilter.bak, for Upperfilters unfortunately this .bak value does not exist in my registry.

    I tried to boot from the disk of Vista and changing the msconfig for a selective startup but without result.

    In addition, the stall even appears at a similar point when you try to upgrade to Windows 7. Is it because of the presence of hidden Media Direct and Dell restore partitions? Compatibility Assistant programs for the two operating systems found nothing significant. Anti virus has been disabled during the installation procedure. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

     

    Hello

    Not quite, but pretty close. Media Direct could not lock the boot sector. It must be a BIOS lock or a mechanism of protection provided by your antivirus software.  Given that, I would check your program settings then for all that prevents changes to the boot sector. You may find more easy just uninstall it and reinstall it after the upgrade. Good luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Crazy" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com Windows help - www.rickrogers.org

    What can I do?

    Oren Ben Am Hello,

    Which firewall do you use?

    How could you identify what the firewall prevents the application of updated?

    If you use a third-party firewall, you can disable it and enable the Windows Firewall. It should automatically identify the programs that need to access the Internet and will prompt you for permission.

    Can't wait to hear back on your part.

    Hello

    I have a brand new Macbook pro and I bought the OEM System Builder of 64-bit Windows 8 driver in a store. My problem is that I have not only not able to install it using Boot Camp. At the end of the installation, a message appears with the following text "Windows could not update the configuration to start the computer. Installation cannot continue.

    The thread is old now, but it is for those who always have this problem.

    When I got the error, I cancelled and restarted the machine. I pressed the 'option' button when starting upwards and he grew the boot partitions. You should see a 'EFI Boot' partition. Choose that and you restart the installation process, but this time it works.

    Supposedly the boot EFI and WinInstall partition should do the same thing. Manually, select one or the other.

  • try to install Medal of Honor Airborne on 32-bit vista, and problems with the windows firewall starts do not.

    OK, im losing my mind.

    I bought a copy of airborne for my 32 bit vista system and found initially that I had to do a few tricks to install and play it like UN-installing ageia phys-x, it was simple enough. Well I have had since stopped playing it and would try to uninstall without result. I tried to fix it and using "C-cleaner.

    I went down some of the files, but I think that my registry is a little buggy so I tried blocking it with c cleaner, he sure found several errors and fixesd them.

    Well, I'm trying now to re - install MOHA and when I put the disc and click autorun the pre-start games window appears with the usual options, play, upgrade, site Web etc... I hit play, it does nothing. I tried to uninstall it from the disk and to halfway through she said "MOHA has not stopped the Installation Wizard prematurely try again later". I can't repair or uninstall or install. I read somewhere that it is a firewall with windows problem and if I run my firewall victory "which I have never on", this should work if the software is added to the 'green' list on the firewall.

    now I find that I can not get my firewall to start. I researched and found a few forums where people explained to the services command prompt and tried to 'start' several 'order' in there and firewall programs will not start giving me this error-windows cannot start service windows firewall. and the code of error-6801.

    I am a novice to tooling autour under the 'software' hood of PCs. I know a bit about the material and that's it. anyone has any ideas for me? otherwise I'm looking to another disorder vista install, I had a moment difficult, installation of the 1st hour and im not not looking forward to try it again...

    Thanks in advance, has soon - a fool lose his mind...
