Vista cannot properly configure security updates
From the Windows update site Lexmark driver download, Vista fails to set up new security updates. so they keep download every time I turn on my system and then fail to set up the next time I start up.
The restore point created when I downloaded the drivers Lexmark has been deleted, so I can't restore my system.
Vista seems to work ok, but I'm afraid I do not have the latest security.
I appreciate the thoughts and recommendations.
Go to the Lexmark device and try to restore the device driver to the version that was functioning before the installation of Windows Update. Then see if the problem is resolved.
If this does not work, try to uninstall the update of the Lexmakr driver in the start menu / Control Panel / programs and features / updates installed and then reboot and see if that solves the problem.
If this does not work, go to Lexmakr and get the latest drivers for your system and the versions of Vista and install instead of what you currently have. Go to the Device Manager by going to start / find and type Device Manager and enter and then double-click on the program icon that appears. Check each device to a red x, yellow! or white? These identify devices with problems probably (drivers, but also of conflict or something else). Click on each for more details and troubleshooting tips. If you need to get drivers (and you do it for the Lexmark device), get the computer dealer or the manufacturer of the device (NOT of Microsoft Updates). In fact, you need to disable the autopilot from Windows Update updates as follows: http://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/how-to-disable-automatic-driver-installation-in-windows-vista/. Follow these steps to get the drivers: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/ht/driverdlmfgr.htm. Once you have the drivers, you can install them via the Manager device as follows: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-device-manager-install-driver.html.
I hope this helps.
Good luck!

Vista Basic
As stated above I get this error message and can not do in SafeMode to rstore system dates back to an earlier era.
I did the system of tapping F8 and tried all offered options of safe mode, but it does not open in any safe mode, just this error message
I read a lot of forums and other people with a similar problem (but more than 2 years ago!) could be accessed in secure mode or had a Vista system drive which gave a repair option.
I have neither. Even the "External recovery Media" disc only allows me to do save and restart. During the reboot it just goes straight to the error message.
At the start, I have the option (via F2) for open System Utilities but couldn't see whatever it is in there that I thought might help.
ALL IDEAS _ SOMEONE PLEASE!
See you soon

Hi howeclan,
To resolve this problem, you need to have the drive of the installed operating system. You can see the following article in the knowledge base: the update is not installed successfully, you receive a message, and the computer restarts when you try to install an update in Windows Vista and Windows 7:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/949358
You can contact the manufacturer of the computer to the disk, or you can also contact a store of assistive technology.
