• Windows Vista Service Pack 1 cannot start the PC

  I decided to try to install service pack 1 new thinking that it is ages since I finally tried there may be a chance that it would actually work now. I was wrong.

  When you try to install the service pack, it stops giving me an error 0xc0190002 for the c:\windows\system32\comrepl.dll file. Before I could get through this just by using System Restore to restore my PC to a time before that I downloaded the update. However, this time, when I try to use the system restore despite a created restore point prior to the installation of the service pack 1 I am informed that no restore points were created on my computer's system disk. I am also unable to boot in safe mode, with the freeze at crcdisk.sys

  Is it possible to fix this without reinstalling Windows?

  Open a free SP1 Support Incident as soon as POSSIBLE (and although it is still available): you're already three months behind on your critical security updates! On 10 August, you'll be four months behind.

  If you wait longer, your only choice will be a clean install.

  TIP: See if temporarily disable AVG, Ad-Aware Ad-Watch [1] & ZoneAlarm AND THEN activation of Windows Firewall allows SP1 install.

• Cannot install Windows Vista Service Pack 2. The following error message appears: 0X800707d1

  Hello

  Three years ago, I bought a Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop. Never met a problem until I tried to install Windows Vista Service Pack 2. I already followed each step instructions Support of Microsoft issues Service Pack for any result or solution. In these cases, I have downloaded the pack update directly from the wepage of Windows Vista, installed Windows Update Readiness Tool, disabled my antivirus (McAfee) and came up with nothing. I even tried to install this update in Mode safe but also failed to install Service Pack 2.

  What is happening all the time, is that I double click on archive downloaded in order to install (having already started my computer in Mode safe mode with networking reportoire and disabled the antivirus as well as its firewall). The Service Pack window opens and I click 'Next' for all the necessary instructions, including 'the computer automatically restarts. When the toolbar installation is completed, the computer automatically goes to restart itself. 3 steps appear as a requirement for the completion of the installation process. All goes well until he reaches "step 3 of 3:100% finished. Do not turn off your computer. After about ten minutes of stall in this step, the following message appears on the screen: "the Service Pack cannot be installed, returning from changes. Do not turn off your computer.

  The computer then rolls back all the changes and initiated in the normal state. After the opening, the first window that appears displays the following message: "the specific driver is not valid. "(Details): error: ERROR_BAD_DRIVER (0x800707d1). I proceeded to check and update alone driver of my computer, then try again to install the Windows Vista SP2 and all the operation has been a failure. I was cracking my head trying to solve this particular problem, and each time the same error pops up. I am seriously considering reformatting Windows Vista from manufacturer CD from my Dell, but I don't know if that would help.

  If someone could help or advise with everything that I would appreciate it a lot.

  Kind regards

• Cannot install Vista Service Pack 2 (or closer to Windows 7)

  Intel Core 2 Due CPU 8400 @ 3.00 GHZ w 2 GB RAM running (Windows Home Premium 64-bit).  Service Pack 1 is installed.

  Buy windows 7... tried last month upgrading Vista however the updater doesn't install not service pack 2. (KB948465).  kept trying to install it but would get to the end and fail, and then seeks to restore to the previous version and I would then have to start in safe mode.
  Spent the last day trawl through all instances and followed each piece of advice out there, but still no joy.
  Manually install the update for Windows (KB947821).  Uninstalled all antivirus & anti-spyware (AVG & Norton were both running).  Ran System File Checker & Windows Install CleanUp and say that everything is OK.
  Each reboot the computer in order to start the installation it restarts.  must select Safe mode with network... so going directly in "installation of the Service Pack: stage 3 of 3" arrives at 100% complete but then message comes up saying "Service pack do not have. '"  Restoration of the changes.  Do not turn off your computer. "Then"Configuring updates"and then to the normal login screen.  When I connect and go update history it reads "Windows Vista Service Pace 2 for x 64-based systems (KB948465).»  Details of the error 8007043 C Code.

  I then followed the instructions to install from the original DVD however after several hours I finally managed: 'the upgrade has failed.  your previous version of WIndows is being restored.  Do not restart your computer during this time. »

  Looking around and we found a lot of people with this issue but no solutions.  Don't know what I can do now?
  Any help is greatly appreciated!
  
  Best,

  Tom

  Uninstalled all antivirus & anti-spyware (AVG & Norton were both running).

  I just noticed the above your first post. You had AVG and installed NAV and loading at startup? What were you doing thought? Not surprising that SP2 or Win7 upgrade would not install!

  You must have an installed AV 1 and loading at startup. Chances are that AVG or Norton worked properly.

  You have 2 choices:

  1. back up your personal data (of which none should be considered reliable) and then format the HARD drive and do a clean install of Vista. or...

  2. make a "custom (Advanced) installation" of Win7 and then delete %system%\Windows.old <=this> . Do not even think to transfer the data from Vista to Win7. ~ Robear Dyer (PA Bear) ~ MS MVP (that is to say, mail, security, Windows & Update Services) since 2002 ~ WARNING: MS MVPs represent or work for Microsoft

• Vista Service Pack 1 - Windows cannot install updates.

  My fathers computer is running Vista Service Pack 1 on Windows Vista Edition family.

  He was unable to update for some time now, because of the Service Pack, it uses at present.  Any attempt to update returns the message "Windows cannot check updates".

  I tried to solve this problem by running the tool upgrade of the system, then the standalone installer.  The Setup program for the next service pack returns the fatal error 8000ffff.  Any ideas?  Previously, I've read that antivirus could cause a problem.  I tried the installation of the service pack with the antivirus software completely removed again without success.

  I just located this - http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Windows-Update-Error-8000FFFF - I should try that first?

  Thank you for all your help.  None of the updates were drivers and nothing happened to interrupt the installation, so I'm stuck for what could have gone wrong.

  In any case, it seemed the logical thing tore it and start over.  I managed to get my hands on Hirens Boot CD and using the facitily MiniXP on which I recorded files that desperately, they would not lose on a newly bought external drive.  Then I did a reinstall of Visa that is now fully updated to Service Pack 2.  I tried to tempt them in the purchase of Windows 7, but that's another story.

  Needless to say that they are now set up to allow regular backups and system restore is running very well!

  Thanks again for your help.

• Windows vista service pack 2 (KB948465) cannot install

  OK my computer went more slowly in a couple of weeks to the point where it would crash a lot. So what I did to restore the computer to do it how I bought it. I guess I did the settings are correct and it became much faster, but I realized, he became also double as slow as before.

  I cheked the computer system and he said he already has SP1.

  but I keep trying to install SP2 and it keeps showing that I have to install SP1. so I downloaded the SP1 and tried to install it but says that its already installed.

  My next step was to remove the update of the system and so I did. then I restart the computer but he repeated that SP1 is installed, then I tried SP2 and continues to show that SP1 is missing.

  If it's like a game of back and now I don't know what can do to fix my computer. Its really very slow. I can't watch my movies or just use the internet cuz I have to wait that the computer crashes, I can't even open two windows or it will crash.

  so first of all, I want to install SP2 and see if anything changes.

  help please, I don't really no what to do, and as you can see I don't know much on a computer, but I guess enough just to follow the directions to fix. Thank you.
