Updated Windows 8 do not install on restored factory new facility.

I recently factory to restore a computer, which was installed with Windows 8. I tried repeatedly, apply updates Windows 8 to be able to install Windows 8.1

What baffles me, is how installs it fail on a computer 'brand new '. It is without anything installed after the factory restore. Whenever I try to apply the updates, I get the message "failed Windows Setup updates. Restoration of the changes. Do not turn off your computer. »

I tried to install updates by using the boot option, ran the update problems (claims the problems have been fixed), with and without the (Norton) antivirus running, tried sfc/scannow (no problem), chkdsk /r (no problem), memory (memory tested fine) test, drivers updated, deleted the software AMD catalyst without success.

All by performing the updates, only the mouse and software (wire, wireless not) are connected to the computer. I tried all the possible solutions I found in the forums to find a solution. I don't understand how a facility, which is supposed to be direct from the factory, can not install updates. Is it possible to apply all updates, such as service packs earlier, or install Windows 8.1 without having first apply updates?

If it helps, it's a HP Pavilion 20, with a processor AMD E1-1200, 4 GB RAM, 64-bit Windows 8.

The problem is the 8.1 Windows deployment by the Windows store is just buggy, leading to problems during installation and reduced performance. Also, you are using an HP printer, and therefore its probable that the original image has a lot of bloatware pre-installed which does not help. The particular system you have purchased must have also taken some time to sell because most of the systems were sold with Windows 8.1 opposed to 8 for some time.

You are advised to clean the Windows 8.1 with 1 update installation directly, ignoring all the hassle of upgrading to Windows 8.1 via the Microsoft Store. To prepare a Windows 8.1 with 1 FAT32 USB Bootable update a UEFI BIOS and GPT partition scheme, see here:

  • Problems with latest updates Windows (KB) do not install & repeated notifications via the taskbar icon

    Hello everyone,

    In my view, there are many people who seem to have a similar problem to mine, although I was unable to find an answer to one of my questions in this post.

    Description of the problem:

    Although my Windows Update is defined on download & install updates during the night hours every day, the latest updates, KB26333880, KB2572073and KB2518864 are not be installed.  I went to the Windows Update site to check my editing history.  He showed the green/white checkmarks next to all 3 updates.  The record also showed that updates have been tempted 3 times during the night.  After clicking on the button "Express" on the Home Page, the results show 3 above updates, but show "0 bytes', then '0 download time. '

    To me, this indicates that there is no update to download, despite the yellow Shield of Notification of update continues to appear in the taskbar.

    Corrective measures attempted:

    1. I tried to download / install twice unsuccessfully using IE8 and FF (including restarting the computer).

    2. download & run the program MS Fixitattempted, but received a message which read, "an unexpected error has occurred, please try again later." No. error code has seen with this message.  (I could RECORD the program on my desktop... just couldn't run the establishment).

    3 tried to search for the presence of these updates using start > run > %windir%KB###.log (where the # is the individual number of update KB).  Every time - a message appears indicating that the file is not found.

    4 looked at the Add/Remove Programs list (with the Show updates checkbox checked).  No updates KB mentioned above could be found.

    5 with SAS, MBAMand Outpost Security Suite Pro scans revealed no malware/security issues.  (SAS and MBAM are used only as scanners on request).

    This problem with the updates does not download & repeated notifications being indicated in the taskbar has occurred many times before.  On this occasion, I called Microsoft several times before finally, my computer remotely accessible support person and spent about 50 minutes to fix the problem.

    (Also, it is noted that almost every support person I spoke with has always tried to tell me that MS is not help with the problem of this type.)  I had to be rather several in my reply... tell the person that MS IS in fact provide assistance free security-related Windows updates.  They now provide free assistance is unknown). Besides... I have more a phone number for States anyway.

    My questions to the community:

    1. is it possible to download & install these 3 updates?

    2 is there an explanation as to why MS Fixit program will not be installed, and if so, are there certain corrective measures I can take which will allow me to download & run this program?

    System Specs:

    Desktop Dell Dimension 3000 Tower;  WIN XP Pro SP3.  2 GB OF RAM;  3.00 gHz CPU;  Outpost Security Suite Pro.  MBAM Pro (on request only).  SAS (on request only);  SpywareBlaster;  IE8 & FF

  • Windows xp will not install updates

    I did steps 1 - 10f... updates of windows will still not installed. Stopped after attempting the installation of the update.

    1. IN the stop step #9 => did you uninstall .NET Framework 4 Client Profile , or you go to step # 10 has?

    2A. When you started to see #10f, were KB2570947, KB2616676, KB931125 (update root certificates) & the Malicious Software Removal Tool , the selected updates to be installed?

    2B. what (s) [including any error number] you got during the installation of the system failed?

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Notwithstanding these questions...

    OPTION A: Visit the Microsoft Solution Center and antivirus security for resources and tools to keep your PC safe and healthy. If you have problems with the installation of the update itself, visit the Microsoft Update Support for resources and tools to keep your PC updated with the latest updates.

    OPTION B: There is a good chance that you see the effects of a hijackware infection!

    NB: If you had no installed anti-virus application or subscription has expired * when the machine was first infected * or your subscription has expired since or the machine is not kept fully corrected in Windows Update, don't waste your time with any of the below: go to OPTION C below.  A repair install won't help!

    Microsoft is sponsoring free, online (third!) for questions: http://supportservices.microsoft.com/support/services/virus_malware_removal

    OPTION C: Your misguided use of Wise Registry Cleaner, cleaner CCleaner registry and/or Ashampoo may have "screwed the dog" here.

    Wish I had better news for you.  Good luck!

    1. uninstalled the .NET Framework 4 Client Profile
    2. one. Yes, these updates have been selected
    b. same error as before.  'A problem on your computer is preventing the updates being downloaded or installed' no error number.  Just say install again or try the troubleshooter.

    Option C seems the best option.  But if I get support should I only list the an a security update for windows xp kb2570947?

  • Windows XP does not install the automatic updates.

    Original title: kopieerfout

    After several years, my laptop with Windows XP does not install the automatic updates, giving only a mistake:

    "

    ER is een doing opgetreden bij het van het bestand ntoskrnl.exe copying

    Kan het bestand niet naar doelmap copying.

    Everything works OK.

    Thanks for your help

    Everything works OK.

    It seems that it is not... Why Dutch? You use or have the corresponding language version installed?

    Free translation of message:

    "An error occurred during the copy of the file ntoskrnl.exe

    Please note that ntoskrnl.exe is a process in the cycle of the initial startup on your computer program.

    Try to load your "last known good configuration".

    The issue is also known to be caused by a short circuit in the ground cable into the keyboard cable. Make sure that it is not the cause of your error by replacing the keyboard with another keyboard or just disconnect the keyboard from the computer. You can also look at your function "Add or remove programs" If KB2686509 <> http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2686509 > is installed.  Install manually if it is not.

    If the above doesn't help, try using the Sfc.exe tool - see here > http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310747

    Or run the Chkdsk tool - see here > http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315265

    If still no luck, you may need to restore the file ntoskrnl. exe as follows:

    1 - insert the Microsoft Windows XP CD. Note: If you have a recovery CD or a restore CD and not a Microsoft Windows XP CD is probably the procedure below does not solve your problem.

    2 - restart the computer and that the computer starts, you should see a message press any key to boot from the CD. When you see this message press any key.

    3. - in the Microsoft Windows XP setup menu, press the R key to enter the recovery console.

    4 - Select the operating system you want to set and enter the administrator password.

    5 - type expand d:\i386\ntoskrnl.ex_ c:\windows\system32

    6. - you will be asked if you want to overwrite the file, type Y and press enter to replace the file.

    7 - type exit to restart the computer.

    If you want Office 2007 updates to appear in the installed updates again, you would need to uninstall/reinstall Office 2007 and install all the updates again.

    Assuming that Office 2007 is installed & working properly and no update is offered when you run a manual check for updates now, you might want to leave enough alone (that is, do nothing) - then see if the 2 updates for Office 2007 SP3 be released next Tuesday (a) receive, (b) successfully install and (c) are listed in the installed updates later.

    PS: The possible causes of the problem are messing with registry cleaners, messing around with the Software Distribution folder, and the fact that it was a computer refurbished when you bought it.

    Hello

    This problem is usually caused by Windows Update corrupted downloads or installations. However, virus infections are also known to cause this problem. Before scanning for viruses, please try these troubleshooting steps and check whether the problem is resolved:

    Method 1: reset the Windows Update components and check if the error persists:

    How to reset the Windows Update components?
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/971058/en-us

    Important: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. 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.

    To do this, follow these steps:

    a. press the Windows key + C and type cmd in the Search box.

    b. right-click on command prompt and select run as administrator.

  • During the installation of a program, receive the error message that Windows Installer is not installed properly on Vista

    I tried to install a program and I got an error message that says "Windows Installer" is not installed correctly and I need to contact the support staff.  I get also a message when I log that says steetings.ini is occupied by another program and it will not allow the sidebar to come.

    Try the Windows Installer Cleanup utility to troubleshoot the problem with Windows Installer:http://www.softpedia.com/get/Security/Secure-cleaning/Windows-Installer-CleanUp-Utility.shtml.

    For the issue of the Sidebar, do a boot minimum http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135.  If the problem goes away then it's just a matter of tracking down the culprit at the origin of the problem.   Follow the procedures described in the article.  Once found, remove, delete, disable or uninstall.  Once remember to put Vista in normal status, as described in the procedures. If the problem occurs in clean mode then just restore the system to normal and reboot - this solution will not work.

    I hope this helps.
