• A security update for Windows XP (KB975560) and __Security update for Windows XP (KB977914) __Keep showing as needing to install even after update. Why?

  Update for Windows XP (KB975560) security and
  Update security for Windows XP (KB977914)
  appear on install Shield yellow Auto.  I tried to update both with Express and custom methods and then restart or shut down according to the instructions. Subsequently, it says full but in no time the Exact same shield updates pop-up again as needing to be installed again. Why?

  Norton was the original installation that came on the machine, but I removed that before starting the use of Trend Micro about 3 years ago

  Applications, (Norton and McAfee) are known to not uninstall (or upgraded) themselves. If you have not already done so:

  1. download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

  2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

  3. double-click on the file that you saved in #1 above to run the utility. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

  4. now to reset Windows Update via the difficulty it here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058

  TIP: Run the difficulty in default and aggressive mode.

  5 restart once again & test (see, for example, if Windows Update offers KB975560 and KB977914 after their installation once again, if you are prompted to do so).

  6. update of security for Windows XP (KB975560) and/or update of security for Windows XP (KB977914) listed in Add/Remove programs now?

• Update for Windows 8 (KB2822241) fails to install and has the error Code 800703F1

  Greetings. My system Windows 8 found a major update, but it cannot install it. The update is called "Update for Windows 8 (KB2822241)." I try to install it and it installs and I see a screen that says:
  ________________________________
  Some updates have not been installed.

  Failed: 1 update
  Examine the important updates

  Error (s) found:

  Code 800703F1 Windows Update has encountered a problem. Get help with this error
  ________________________________

  From there, I have the option to 'Try again', but when I try I always get the same result (error 800703F1). I already tried the Windows Update troubleshooting tool and whenever I run that he finds two problems and offers correct: "Repair Windows Update Database Corruption" and "repair the Windows Update components. I had it apply these patches every time, but the problem persists.

  I read about this setting by using the function "sfc/scannow", but oddly, when I try even in an elevated command prompt he also fails. It scans absolutely nothing and says: "Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation."
  The 'Windows Modules Installer"service is set to"Manual"and runs, as I read it is necessary.

  What is really weird, is that in my list of installed updates, KB2822241 stands as one of the updates already installed with the name of "update for Microsoft Windows" (instead of "update for Windows 8"as one continues to try to install my PC), and when I run the independent for this update installer (I downloaded from the web site of Microsoft to try it) the installation program indicates the update is already installed, and it closes. This gave me the idea that maybe my PC is confusing one update for the other. After all, why he would find KB2822241 as an important update that it needs if it is already installed?

  I know that I can normally solve the problem of update and the question of the SFC by resetting or refresh my PC via built-in tools of Windows 8, but I don't want to go through that, unless it's the only solution. System Restore didn't help, but it is an opportunity to reinstall some other updates.

  As it is, then, the problems persist: "Update for Windows 8 (KB2822241)" settles "sfc/scannow" cannot perform the operation and not I ask.

  For the record, my machine is a 900 Asus EeePC ha with an Intel Atom N270 CPU, 2 GB of RAM, and it is running 32-bit Windows 8.

  I'd appreciate any help on this matter. Thank you in advance.

• I use the 64-bit drivers for Windows 7 from the Satellite on the Qosmio?

  Hello

  I have 2 laptops Toshiba, Qosmio X 300 - 14U and Satellite T130 - 12 K, and my question is:
  I use the 64-bit drivers for Windows 7 from the Satellite on the Qosmio?

  Thanks in advance

  Hi frakri,

  What drivers tell you exactly? Display, chipset, sound, etc. ?

  Theoretically, it should be possible, but it s according to the material. For example if your Qosmio has the same chipset as satellite you can use these drivers. Otherwise it wouldn't work because the hardware is different.
  First, check the features!

  In addition, you can get all the drivers here:

• I get a repeated error on install Platform Update For Windows Vista (KB971644). Fails with the error code 80073AA2. Installation comes from Windows Update.

  Windows Update loops round and round constantly to not set up correctly, then restores the changes

  Do I need to install the System Update Readiness Tool KB 947821?

  Probably not: I had a lot of doubt that SP2 is installed if KB947821 has not already been installed.

  Given that this problem is after a fairly recent install of SP2...

  Free unlimited installation and compatibility support is available for Windows Vista, but only for Service Pack 2 (SP2). This support, initially planned to end on November 26, 2009, has been postponed until February 26, 2010, so move on! Availability of support chat or messaging differs depending on your location. Some questions may require that more support for which he is advanced a charge.  Go to http://support.microsoft.com/oas/default.aspx?prid=13014&gprid=582034 & select appropriate category (i.e., download problem;) Installation problem; Problems after installing a service pack <=pick this=""> ).

  In the case opposite & whereas KB971644 is NOT a security update, you can simply hide the "thing":

  1. stop the automatic updates service:

  Start > Right click on run , and then select run as administrator > services.msc (type) > [OK]
  Double-click automatic updates > click stop
  (Stopping the service will take a moment)

  2 remove the contents of the download folder:

  Start > Right click on run , and then select run as administrator >
  (type or copy/paste) %windir%\SoftwareDistribution > [OK]
  Open the download folder and delete its content
  Close the window.

  3 start | Control Panel | System maintenance and (if you use Classic view, skip this step). Windows Update |  View the updates available (or Select the updates installed): right click on the (platform) update for Windows Vista (KB971644) | Click hide update | Confirm the prompt UAC (User Account Control), if any, & OK your way out.

  4. start the automatic updates service:

  Start > Right click on run , and then select run as administrator > services.msc (type) > [OK]
  Double-click automatic updates > click Start
  (Stopping the service will take a moment)

  =====================================
  To restore/show updates for Vista: Start | Control Panel | System maintenance and (if you use Classic view, skip this step) | Windows Update | Restore hidden updates: Find and select the update you want to install. Click restore. You can now select once again it and install through the normal process.

  NB: If KB971644 were available for download/installation manual (and is not), I would have you try it.

  I was wondering... you are totally unable to download the file
  on your hard drive? Or... you can download the file to your hard drive
  by car, but simply cannot display it?

  If you right click the executable for Windows Media Player and
  in the menu choose... Properties / Compatibility tab is...
  Windows 95, chosen for Compatibility Mode? If_Yes_try
  unchecking the box / apply / OK.

  It might be the next thread deals with the same issue...
