Update Windows wants to install an older driver from Nvidia

• Windows Update: Wants to install an older driver than what I

  When I received my recovered laptop hard drive, the driver for Realtek RTL8168D / 8111D family PCE-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC was dated 19/05/2009.

  I have a HP PC. Updates of HP provided a later version driver, called Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller, from 27/11/2009 dated, version 7.11.1127.2009.  I installed this driver.

  Then MS Updates came back and tried to update the driver, which I did, which referred to a pilot as of 19/05/2009.

  Then updates HP tried to update the driver, and I have the possibility, which referred to the 27/11/2009, version 7.11.1127.2009.

  Now MS Updates wants to update the driver again.  I don't know that it is for the previous version.  Seems to be in an infinite loop here.  What should I do to make among the two update resources is not always try to mess with this particular device driver?

  Hide this update, only mask of this update and no future updates.

  If you don't want it, hide it.

  As to your question why MS pushing an older driver, you'll have to communicate directly with MS is on the answer to this question.

  So basically if MS offers a driver, go directly to the manufacturer site to check it out. Download and install from the site of the manufacturer, if applicable and hide the update on the WU site. Use WU as advice or something.

• Update Windows wants to install KB973346 daily

  Greetings!

  I - and many of my colleagues - are being invited by the automatic update to install the fix KB973346 daily.  We are all running Windows XP SP3 and are also updated on all our patches.  Is there a way to stop reminders to install the patch already installed, or should live us with it until the next Patch Tuesday?

  I tried the following remedies, and each one failed in one way or another:

  Run the Microsoft Fix It utility to reset the Windows Update components in aggressive mode (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058) and default - shield yellow still appears in the system tray.

  Restart the AutoUpdate service in Control Panel administrative tools - computer management - yellow shield still appears in the system tray.

  Rename the C\WINDOWS\system32\catroot2 folder to shield catroot2.old - yellow reappears in the system tray.

  Uninstall the KB973346 hotfix by using Add or remove programs Panel - after you have reinstalled the patch, yellow shield reappears in the system tray invites me to install it again.

  Installation of the redistributable KB973346 hotfix installer (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=24701af8-b87e-4e85-9463-f50755a1b6ad&displaylang=en) in normal mode and Mode safe, boots - a reading error "Setup error: the system cannot find the specified file" appears, and the installation fails.

  Are there other strategies I miss to correctly install this hotfix and will not be prompted to install again once it has been installed?

• Update Windows wants to install a new certificate. How do I know that it is authentic and not the virus of the "flame"?

  The footprint is

  Ad 71 d7 ad c5 f5 4 20 15 25 c 38 45 46 02 61 c6 c2 d4 be 84

  The key was created this month (June 2012)

  Thank you.

  Hello

  If you run Windows Update it is not a virus. However, if you try and update certificates through third party sites there's a chance it could infect your computer.

  Hope this information helps.

• Error: "Win32 dll' after that I installed the latest driver from nvidia.

  My specs:

  -Windows Vista Edition Home Premium 64-bit

  -4 GB of ram

  -Core 2 Duo E8400

  -Geforce 260GTX

  I installed and activated my Windows Vista with service pack 2. I downloaded and installed all the latest drivers of my motherboard website.

  Problem: I downloaded the latest driver for my graphics card nvidia and once that I reboot my windows displays the error message saying "win32 dll" does not work and my background task bar is full of this message. Also, my pc is very slow. I somehow get to "system restore point" restore back to another restore point.

  Once my pc over to restore to a different point, my pc works fine. So I installed an old version of my graphics driver and it worked fine. Restart and distillers works very well.

  Question; What is the problem with my pc? What is my graphic card, driver, something that I didn't do, and how can I solve the problem?

  Thank you for your help

• Windows Update keeps wanting to install "Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 8 for Windows XP (KB2618444).

  Windows Update keeps wanting to install "Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 8 for Windows XP (KB2618444)", even if it appears in the list of updates to inistalled in the control panel.  The installation fails.  When I use "Fix it", it indicates that default Windows update data locations have changed, but I can't 'Fix It' to do the repair.  In what could be a related issue, Windows Data Execution Prevention (part of IE 8?) detects a malfunctioning or malicious add-on, whenever I try to access a video on ESPN3 and closes the Web page.  However, 'Fix It' can not detect any problems with the modules.  I don't know what else to try to fix any of these problems.

  Can someone help me?

  Hello Ali kazemlo thank you for you question on the Microsoft Community.

  I understand you are trying to install a new graphics driver for you're amd/Ati graphics device.

  First of all, make sure that Windows 8 has all the updates that are installed that have been published to Microsoft open this link and let it check for updates, if updates are shown, install all updates and continue to check new updates until none appear, once you have done this test and reinstall the graphics driver.

• I want to move my hard drive from a computer with a motherboard dead to a newer machine. The activation process for Windows XP SP3 failed.

  I want to move my hard drive from a computer with a motherboard dead to a newer machine.  The activation process failed.  How can I get the operating system XP Professional sp3 reactive?  I have the code original and other info.

  original title: Moving the death machine drive

  Hello CarrolScott,

  The activation problem arose because the hardware on your current computer does not match that of the hardware on the machine whose mother is dead.

  The best option for the reactivation is to use the telephone line. This, unfortunately, is automated and may refuse to turn on your system; However, don't despair just rest on the line after the automated atcivation crossed its procedure and you will be transferred to a real person. Tell this person you've done, and it should be able to help activate.

• Windows wants to install 6 updates every time that I log out or put the computer in mode "Eve"

  I can't stop or have food options on.  I expect the updates to install.  It is said that they have installed and the next time I start there they are.

  Hi Happygrammy,

  Welcome to the Windows Vista answers Forum!

  This could happen if the update that you are trying to install are damaged during the process. To prevent this all the time you need to maybe uninstall the updates, and install them one at a time.

  To do this, you will need to make a list updates that are the cause of the problem, then go to install update history and uninstall them manually. Then download these updates and install them in clean boot mode.

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  Steps to put the system in clean boot include:

  1 log on to the computer using an account with administrator rights

  2. click on start, type msconfig.exe in the start search box and press ENTER to start the System Configuration utility.

  If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue

  3. on the general tab, click Selective startup, and then clear the check box load startup items. (The check box use the file Boot is not available.)

  4. on the Services tab, click to select the skin all the Microsoft services check box, and then click Disable all

  Note: Following this step lets services Microsoft continue to run. These services include networking, Plug-and-Play, record of events, error reporting, and other services. If you disable these services, you can permanently delete all restore points. Do not do this if you want to use with existing restore points system restore utility

  For more information about the clean boot, follow the below given link:

  How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

  When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

  1. click on start, type msconfig.exe in the start search box and press ENTER.

  If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue.

  2. on the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK.

  3. When you are prompted to restart the computer, click on restart

  You will need to maybe reset the Windows Update components, download the Microsoft fix - it from the link and run the wizard that automatically resets the windows update components, if it does not, I recommend that reset you manually update windows components from the link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058

  These steps should solve the problem, give it a try and check if you are able to perform windows updates.

  Hope this information is useful.
