Original title: need help to update my Window XP 2002

Hello, Mariel,.

There are several discussions on the issue-

Step 1: uninstall Internet Explorer 7 and check whether the problem is resolved.

http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/927177/en-us

Step 2 : repair Internet Explorer 6 by using the System File Checker in Windows XP.

If you already have Windows XP Service Pack 2 installed, and you do not want to install Internet Explorer 8, you may be able to resolve problems with Internet Explorer 6 by running the System File Checker.

To run the System File Checker, follow these steps:

1. Click Start, click Run type sfc/scannow, and then press ENTER.

2 follow the prompts throughout the System File Checker process.

3. restart the computer when System File Checker process is complete.

    Any ideas why it does not work?  It is run on a Windows XP workstation.  The target server is on the local network and running ESXi 4.1.  The vmRun version is 7.1.2 and is installed with Workstation 7.1.2.

    I also tried Ubuntu 10.04 with vmRun from a Workstation 7.1.2 installation.  There, he also fails with the same error.

    Note that ESXi 4.1 is used to test installation is not allowed and is running in demo mode.  Management of the vSphere client works without any problem the same Windows XP workstation.

    Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you.

    You must install the full package of VIX by http://communities.vmware.com/community/developer/downloads. It contains only components to manage the workstation. Please note that I had to install in the VIX 1.10.1 order then Workstation 7.1.2 to get both to work on my Windows 7 computer.

  • Error code 80070005 when trying to update Windows using Windows 7 Home Premium

    I am running Windows 7 Home Premium, upgrade from Vista on a Sony Vaio VGN-FW350D. The upgrade was promotional as part of the purchase of the laptop in the Canada.

    I had no other pressing issues which have not been resolved. IHAVE run the built-in Windows based Registry Cleaner (like a cleaner 'free') and the dreagmenter of disk as part of the troubleshooting process.

    I have tried everything I can find on the setting of the following problem:

    When trying to update Windows (ie. Download updates of security or Microsoft security patches, etc.), the following is displayed: "Windows could not search for new updates - an error occurred when searching for new updates for your...» Code 80070005. It gives you the 'Try Again' button, but who does not work either.

    Also, after running in a Fixit 'Microsoft' by default and aggressive modes, change my registration to God knows what state by applying other methods proposed CIHI, now when I try an update of Windows, the "last check for updates '"and updates have been installed"the both indicate '' never. '' BTW, I have the restore points before you make these changes, so no worries there.

    I would like to point out that, as far as I know, this problem has persisted since January 1, 2011, when I downloaded and installed Microsoft Security Essentials, which would not update or another. Before installing MS Security Essentials, I ran Avast, I have re-installed after removing Ms Sec Ess.

    In short, Windows update does not work, giving Code 80070005. Can anyone help solve this problem with me? Thank you...

    Hello

    Error code 80070005 means generally that you're not quite allowed to install updates.

    If the problem persists, follow the steps mentioned below and the Coachman.

    Step 1:

    All first please confirm that you have logged on to an account with administrative privileges.

    To connect to the administrator account

    a. Click Start, right click on computer, then click on manage.

    b. expand local users and groups, and then click the users folder.

    c. right-click on the connection of the administrator, and then click Properties, and then remove that checking the account is disabled.

    Now, restart the computer and log on to the administrator account and try to update again.

    Step 2:

    You could disable your anti-virue and malware/spyware protection temporarily to see if they are contradictory with the update.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software
     
    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats.  In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Step 3:

    Uninstall Security avast software, install the update day, then reinstall Avast.

    Hello

    I googled this file pofusido.dll and it could be caused by a virus.

    I would suggest that you disable the restore mode as viruses use it to reinstall set apart them.

    Download and install the free http://www.malwarebytes.org/

    Restart the computer and keep pressing F8 to get into safe mode with network connection.

    Once you have updated Malwarebytes run and see if it can remove the virus.

    So delete all cookies in your internet Explorer.

  • Script to add a domain user to the local Administrators group raises the error "the network path is not found."

    I have a Windows Server 2008 R2 domain and a Windows XP Pro workstation that has been attached to the domain and then disconnected. I am trying to create a VBS script to add a domain user to the local Administrators group.

    I log on my computer as a local administrator and run the following script:

    Dim oNetwork: Set oNetwork = WScript.CreateObject ("WScript.Network")
    StrPC Dim: strPC = oNetwork.ComputerName
    Dim OGroup: Set oGroup = GetObject ("WinNT: / /" & strPC & "/ directors")
    Dim OUser: Set oUser = GetObject ("WinNT://domainname/username")
    oGroup.Add (oUser.ADsPath)

    This script returns the error "the network path is not found."

    However, I am able to go into control panel > user accounts > enter the user name and the domain name > click Next... > choose the administrators of the 'other' group and the user name will be added to the local Admin group.

    The same script runs without error if it is launched after logon on the workstation with a domain administrator account.

    How can I get my script runs without error, when you are logged into the workstation as a local administrator?

    Best regards, Andy

    The code that I used came from here. If the syntax of the Add method is passed to oUser.ADsPAth to "WinNT: / /" & domainname & "/" & username, the script works correctly.

    Therefore, the modified script:

    Dim oNetwork: Set oNetwork = WScript.CreateObject ("WScript.Network")
    StrPC Dim: strPC = oNetwork.ComputerName
    Dim OGroup: Set oGroup = GetObject ("WinNT: / /" & strPC & "/ directors")
    Dim strUser: strUser = "WinNT://domainname/username."
    oGroup.Add strUser

    Thanks to Qasim Zaidi to show the code of work here.

    all the site went "not found HTTP 404 error. The requested resource is not found. "and the"Firefox cannot load Web sites but other programs can"page is not help somehow

    One possible cause is security software (firewall, antivirus) that prevents or limits Firefox or plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

    Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.
