  • Get the error code 641, cannot install Windows updates.

    Reluctant to do a reinstall of windows.  I had the same problem, find the same useless information on a cure.  I did a reinstall of windows (Vista) and partially by installing the updates of windows I ran into the same problem again, the windows installer does not.  Even from scratch will get not anywhere, leaving you at least your system as it stands leaves can be used instead of a partially updated with no program system.

    I wonder if Apple has this kind of problem?

    Hello

Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

    What is a Win7 64 bit computer?

    Your time settings, date & time zone are all correct?

    What application or antivirus security suite is installed and your current subscription?  What anti-spyware (other than Defender) applications?  What third-party firewall (if applicable)?

    A (another) Norton or McAfee application has already been installed on this machine (for example, a free trial version which is preinstalled when you bought it)?

  • Error code 80070490 while search/checking the Windows updates.

    IHaving tried to solve a recent problem that occurs with Windows Update (error Code 80070490) I read and try different things that have been suggested on this forum. It appears after trying the SFC, there are a few problems with the registry that cannot be resolved automatically. I tried the automatic Microsoft difficulty he 50202 but that does not solve it. I tried a system restore, but there is no restore point before the update I managed successfully to do (31 October 2009). So finally, I tried the repair facility that suggest the majority of people. I've had this laptop since February 2009, and Vista was preinstalled. I have the DVD of resettlement for Vista Home Premium 32 BIT and have not added anything about myself, but when I try to do the upgrade to install it says it is disabled and that he needs at least a current version or the more recent than the version I am running. I don't see how it can be less common because it is the version that I've been running for 9 months and the DVD that I was sent with the laptop. I am now on the ideas and suggestions...

    Fraser,
    Well restoring factory would correct any problems if they are strictly related to software.

    If you do a normal upgrade to Windows 7 and the problems you are currently experiencing are the question within the registry, then it is likely that they could remain after the upgrade.  Now, if you perform a Custom Installation upgrade press she will move to your current Windows directory to a new folder (Windows.old) and then it will install properly.  Of course, with this option, you will need to reinstall your applications.
    If you buy a copy of Windows 7 in another country just make sure that you get the correct language and that it is a valid copy.  (Also check the version of Windows.)  You shouldn't have any problems once you get back.  Here are some links with information about Windows 7 and upgrade considerations.

    I hope this helps.

    Hello

    PLEASE IF ANYONE CAN HELP ME WITH THE PROBLEM BELOW:

    Tolis,

    8007045 d = "ERROR_IO_DEVICE - the request could not be performed because of an i/o device error."

    Maybe your hard drive goes bad.  Run chkdsk complete as follows:

    Open 'my computer '.

    right click on the C: drive, select "Properties".

    Click the tab "Tools".

    Click on "check now".

    check * two * check boxes, and then click Start.

    Follow the instructions to restart windows.

    Before Windows recharge, it will run a full chkdsk, which can take an hour or more.  take note of all the reported errors: if it says that it has replaced bad clusters in file, these files could now be corrupt.

    If there is a lot of mistakes, you should you consider backup of your data files, fitness and installing a new version of windows.

  • Windows 7 - error code: 80070246 (cannot install updates)

    Original title: Windows 7 update has failed.

    I have 10 updates that must be installed, and it continues to fail. I get the error code 80070246. I tried a .net removal fix suggested in another post, rename c:\windows\softwaredistribution, manually download the updates (which also failed), sfc/scannow have produced no results... The updates that I need to install are: KB982381, KB981078, KB982526, KB982670, KB982526, KB982670, KB978542, KB78601, KB79482, KB980218, KB971033, KB980408, KB980846 and KB981793. I tried the update of windows running as administrator thus (the account I use has administrative privileges). Pre-release candidate seems to work perfectly. Since it expired and I had to buy a copy of Windows 7, I had problems. Why this version would not work as well as pre-release?

    OK, so thank you to Alex blood Support technique Microsoft. The solution to my fixing corrupt system files was to run the installation on my Windows DVD install and choose the option 'Upgrade. ' I backed up all my documents in case where, but my system remained intact. I didn't format my hard drive and reinstall Windows, so I am grateful that this solution worked. I just someone would wish he suggested earlier.
