Update of Windows XP does not work, how do I stop the Office 07/10 updates?
For these last months, the web version of Windows Update does not work with XP. When you click on the button for Express or custom installation, the stalls of system looking for updates. So I had to put windows to warn me of updates instead of going on the site, but now it keeps wanting to download me updates for Office 2007 and 2010, but I do not own these products (I use Office 2003). I could not stop, even when I ticked the box does not warn me of those more. Finally I went to the site and found an option to disable Microsoft Update, which said I could always download the updates to the site, but I can't because he's trying to force me to re - download Microsoft Update.
What is going on? I don't like the new Microsoft Update as it keeps nagging me to download updates for the products that I have not yet owned. How can I update Windows XP only? This is very fustrating.

Hi Steve,.
Follow these steps.
Go to Start | Settings | Control Panel and double click on automatic updates. I'll explain why later.
Then, tick the option at the bottom to turn off automatic updates, and then click apply/OK.
Then, go to start, run, copy and paste this command and click OK: services.msc
In the list of Services, you can see Background Intelligent Transfer Service ?
Here's a pix what he looks like.
If it is not listed, follow these steps to register the BITS service.
Open the Windows search tool, copy / paste the following text, and then click Search: qmgr.dll
Research should show this file in the following locations:
C:\Windows\System32
C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386
C:\WINDOWS\system32\bits
You might only see qmgr.dll in C:\WINDOWS\system32 depending on your configuration.
Then, go to start, run and copy/paste: regsvr32 qmgr.dll and click OK
Do the same with this file: regsvr32 qmgrprxy.dll
Reboot the system and then copy / paste this command into the field run:
%windir%\System32\rundll32.exe setupapi, InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132 %windir%\inf\qmgr.inf
If you are prompted to insert the Windows installation CD, ignore this and in the dialog below, replace the path C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386
If you could only see the file in C:\WINDOWS\system32, change the path to that instead.
Restart the PC and then go to the Services and you should be able to see BITS in the list.
Double click on it and then on the general tab, click the Start button to start the service manually. This is just a test to make sure that it works correctly.
If you get 2 error: cannot find the specified file, click on start, then run again and copy / paste the following command, and then click OK:
Tracking Add HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\BITS\Parameters /v ServiceDll /t REG_EXPAND_SZ /d %windir%\System32\qmgr.dll
Reboot again and try once more to start the PIECES. It should work fine now, but in the unlikely case where it fails again, run the following command, and then press ENTER:
Reg add HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\BackupRestore\FilesNotToBackup
Reboot once more and then do the following.
Go to this link and install the IE8 December Update:
http://www.Microsoft.com/en-GB/download/details.aspx?ID=41404
If you use IE7, use this link instead:
http://www.Microsoft.com/en-GB/download/details.aspx?ID=41442
Finally, go to the Windows Update site and you should be able to download normally.
If this is the case, re - enable automatic updates in Control Panel.

Satellite A660 Wireless does not work: how to turn on the wireless switch?
Wireless to the new laptop just stopped working. When I press Fn + f8 it says: Wireless Communication is disabled. Please activate the Wireless Communication switch.
I tried to disable and enable wireless, update (Realtek PCie FE family controller) and Broadcom 802.11n network adapter driver and load the default settings in the Bios but nothing has worked. The button on the top panel wireless is turned on and when I press the button, a window called support thoshiba button jump upward and said: the key has not been configured. But this happens to other laptops also (we have 8 portable type, even), it cannot use the wifi. What can I do now?

Hello
Please reinstall the Wlana driver and try again. (Do not to update to uninstall the old driver, restart the device and install the new drivers)
In most cases these disorders Wlan is displayed if the WiFi driver does not work correctly.
Given that all other laptops are ok, I think that it is a temporal matter in the registry or something like thatPS: It is possible that the FN buttons do not work corectly. Therefore, you can reinstall the VAP (value added package) and support of card Flash Utility so in order to reconfigure the FN keys.

It gives me an error code and says that my windows defender is stopped. Is it because I have installed Microsoft Security Essentials to help eliminate the virus. What should I do? I tried unistalling it and reinstall but it won't let me not just uninstall first. In addition, the virus has a sound, it does at the start and he is always on my computer when I start my computer. This means that the files are still on my computer?

AdminServer does not work, how do we stop ManagedSRV?
Hi all
I have a simple question, but I can't find a simple answer!
Normally, we can use "stopManagedWebLogic.sh" (or *.cmd) in order to stop the MgSRV. But if AdminServer is not running, this script may not stop the managed servers. How can we stop ManagedServer (except a kill-9) in this situation?
Thanks in advance,
Ministry of healthHi Moh,
There is a very simple answer for that.
Use the WLST script.
For example:
If my managed server is Ms1 and running on 7003 then proceed as follows.
1. first run java weblogic. WLST before you run this option make sure you set setDomainEnv.sh file to run this command wlst.
2 connect('username','password','t3://localhost:7003')
It will connect to the server managed running
3 shudown('Ms1')
Oh it will stop your server managed without AdminServer availability or running without kill-9
option. Hope this will help you.
Kind regards

Hi my NameJoel,
See the methods mentioned below and check if that helps.Method 1:How to troubleshoot an installation fails on Windows XP Service Pack 3Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must 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.Note: A firewall is software or hardware that checks information coming from the Internet or a network. Then the firewalleither blocks information or allows information to pass to your computer. If the information is blocked or throughdepends spent on your firewall settings. A firewall can prevent malicious software (such as worms) to access your computer through a network or the Internet. A firewall can also help stop your computer from malware sent to other computers. Windows XP, Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) and Windows XP Service Pack 3 (SP3) include firewall software.See also:You cannot install updates from Windows Update, Microsoft Update, or by using the auto update after a repair of Windows XP after installing Windows XP SP3 immediately after a clean installation of Windows XP SP2 or
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/943144Steps to take before you install Windows XP Service Pack 3Note: Disable your antivirus software is not usually recommended, some software antivirus prevents certain system changing files. This can cause the Windows XP SP3 installation failure. To make sure that you manage to install Windows XP SP3, temporarily disable your antivirus software, including any third-party antispyware and firewall program. To do this, right-click on the icon for your antivirus program, and then click on disable. The antivirus program icon typically appears in the bottom right corner of the computer screen.Important: Make sure that you enable the antivirus software after you install Windows XP SP3.Hope this information helps.
