Vista Sp2 installation fails with the error ASN1

When I run the installation of SP2 through Windows Update or the standalone version I get the following error «end asn1» unexpected data  Anyone have any ideas?

I tried everything I can think and find on the web or on TechNet.  I even reinstalled the operating system and the error showed once again.

Hello RowdyMrB,
Thank you for visiting the Microsoft Answers forum.
I suggest you to run a scan of the System File Checker to see if there is corruption in your system from the wrong key of RAM,

To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click principally made programs, Accessories, right-click guest, and then click run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow.
  2. Type the following command and press ENTER:
    sfc/scannow

    The sfc/scannow command analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.

Please post back with the last 50 lines of the output JOURNAL.

Thank you

  • Windows 8 installation fails with the error "the product key entered don't match any available to install windows images.

    I have a Sony Vaio SVE1113M1EB provided with pre-installed Windows 8. Yesterday, my laptop won't start and recovery tools did not work.

How to install Windows 8?

    Original title: Installation of Windows 8

    Hi Qadir,

    The issue could be due to the supplied product key does not match the press which is used to install Windows. The product key that is provided can be a file without assistance, in a. EI. CFG file, in the PID.txt file or in the BIOS firmware. Windows OEM 8 machines ship with the product key in the firmware, and if this product key does not match the press, then you will see the above error message.

    I suggest you to change the product key to the correct for the media you are trying to install. If the system has a product key in the motherboard (o. a. 3.0 [Activation OEM] provides an OEM product key in the firmware), you use an Unattend file, file (EI.cfg) edition Configuration or the product ID file (PID.txt).

  • OfficeJet 8600 installation fails with the error 25024

    Had to replace a 8600 printer. Added the new device, but analysis wouldn't work on the second computer, nor the HP application would launch. Tried to reinstall the driver but it fails stating that he cannot remove the old device. In the case of the Viewer, it displays an error 25024. I tried to install from the CD & download. He has worked on the other computer, but this one may not remove or install correctly. I tried to run the scrubber v14 but who does not find a device and said has some files to remove, restart, attempt to install and always fails. The scrubber removes all entries in reg etc. and which is the right to use one?

    Win7 64 bit

    OfficeJet Pro 8600 - attached to the network (wired).

    To start sounds like it is a driver problem. I want to start to be sure that deleting the software and relocation happened in the best way possible. I want you to follow my steps, I can be sure that we start both on the same page.

    First of all, if you use a USB cable, be sure to remove it (it's important). Do not plug it in again until the software instructs you. Through devices and printers, programs and features and issues Device Manager and make sure that all copies, files, and programs related to the printer are removed. As indicated, and then restart the computer.

    In the menu START menu type "%temp%" and press ENTER. Here, I want you to press Ctrl + A, and press DELETE. Some files you cannot delete them, ignore these files and delete the majority that allows it to.

    find and install SOFTWARE to FEATURE FULL if it is available:

  • Vista Service Pack installation fails with the error.

    I checked Windows update and every time he tried to install SP1, system failed, done everything suggested to & assistance and not yet able to download SP1 and SP2 cannot download until I have the first...

    Original title: I want to install Vista Service Pack 2 but informed me that I don't have a VSP 1, when I try to download SP1 it tells me that I have an error, please can someone advise... Thank you

    Try to download the SP directly on your computer first, then run. My apologies if that's what you hear in #3

    I hope this helps. (Note: you can do the same thing with SP2)

  • 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 >

    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]

    (Stopping the service will take a moment)

    The following things could not solve the problem:

    • Tune up utilities
    • Availability of system updates tool
    • fix Microsoft (search for problems of sound and WV64 update)

    Another problem maybe caused by the present is: there is no sound on the PC.
