  Upgrate XP problems

  Hello

  I have an older version of XP (2002) and I just reinstalled after formatting my drive. I have problems to update to sp3. I get the error: at a minimum, you must have installed SP1. If I try to install sp1a hang it up because there is no response from the server. Can you help me please?

  If you have JUST done a clean install, read on. (Otherwise after return, especially if you have already installed anti-virus software.)

  SP1a is totally useless.

  You can use this upgrade path:

  Gold XP to XP SP2 to XP SP3.

  Here are the detailed instructions:

  1. download the installation of SP2, SP3 and IE8 files. I prefer to keep these on a USB key, but this is optional. Here are the links to all the installation of three files:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?ID=28 (for SP2)

  http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?ID=24 (for SP3)

  http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&ID=43 (for IE8)

  And if you wish, download the Setup file of a good anti-virus program. I recommend Avira free Antivirus:

  http://www.Avira.com/en/Avira-free-antivirus

  Other good antivirus programs include Avast and MSE (both free):

  http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/products/security-essentials

  2. disconnect Internet.

  3. temporarily disable the automatic updates.

  4. install SP2. Restart TWICE.

  5 install the SP3. Restart TWICE.

  6 switch to IE8. Restart TWICE.

  7 install an Antivirus software.

  (What happens very often is that someone has their software antivirus running as they try to install SP3, which often translates into chaos! "This is why it must be done after installing SP3 and IE).

  8 make sure that firewall Windows is activated (it should be).

  (Now you can physically reconnect to the Internet.)

  9 visit Windows Update to download and install only the critical security updates.

  10 re - enable automatic updates.

  After the back if you need guidance.

• 800b0100 error code when you try to install Windows updates KB974145 and KB978251

  Greetings and salutations:

  Any help would be appreciated.

  I tried to install these 'important' updates several times with the same result - updates failed, error 800b0100 code. I downloaded and installed the KB974821 tool - tells me it installed - same problem. (I don't know if I'm supposed to do something else with KB974821 - I have to "run" or just "installed" it enough?) Instructions could certainly be clearer)

  I tried to download and install the updates manually - without success - I get various error messages, like "does not apply to your system" or "for a different hardware platform.

  I tried this with my firewall/antivirus close as well - using Trend Micro - and still no luck.

  Thoughts, comments, suggestions, help? Very much appreciated. Thank you.

  
  

  BTW, I'm running VHP 64 with Service Pack 2 installed. Nothing should be this complicated or frustrating.

• "Configuration of the Windows updates failed. Restoration of the changes. Do not turn off your computer"error when you try to install Windows updates

  Original title: problems with updates

  I tried to install windows updates since the store won't let me update to 8.1 otherwise, but I've been miserably lacking 4 days in a row now. Commissioning Windows Update in Control Panel or the charm of parameters found 133 available updates and informs me that they will install automatically. If I then try to install progress remains at "downloading 0 KB", after a while updates are shown as installation. When the installation is completed I'm prompted to restart my pc. After the reboot if I'm greeted by the "Failure configuring Windows updates" screen for about an hour, then I'm able to reconnect to the desktop computer. I've been searching the forums for similar problems looking for an answer and trying different solutions, such as:

  Stop the update service then renaming or deleting the folder C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution. No positive results on this one.

  Using SFC and DISM, first came up with my system is clean, the second did find and fix corrupt elements of store, but the problem persists.

  Download the tool for troubleshooting Windows Update from Microsoft page, who reported finding and repairing problens with service, but again without success.

  Reduce the installed updates at a time, in the instance that Windows can't handle most of the many updates at the same time. I tried this and it seemed to go well, but a strange point of interest that is so annoying is that several edits I checked are installing somehow, even if it is the only example that shows the number of updates being installed before restarting. Yet I always comes to the same conclusion. Failure of Windows updates the screen. What should I do?

  Hello

  Please update us with the State of the question. We apologize for the delay in responding

  1. You have a disk to install for Windows 8?
  2. Can you please explain what did you mean by update failed?
  3. Have you an error message when the update failed?

  I propose to perform the refresh once more using the Installation of Windows 8 disc, but before to perform updating please follow the procedure below

  2. Press on and hold or click the drive that you want to repairand then tap or click Properties.
  3. Tap or click the Tools tab, and then, under error-checking, tap or click check.   You may be prompted for an administrator password or to confirm your choice.
  4. Follow the instructions. You may have to restart your PC after that error checking is complete.

  Important: when running chkdsk on the drive hard if bad sectors are found on the disk hard when chkdsk attempts to repair this area if all available on which data may be lost.

  Step 2: command tool (DISM) deployment image Service and management.

  By running this command, we can retrieve or modify information in an image. To run the DISM command, please follow the steps below:

  1. Go to the Windows Start menu.
  2. Type cmd on the keyboard.
  3. Right-click on the program from the command prompt and choose Run as administrator.
  4. The command prompt dialog box.
  5. Type the command Dism.exe / online/cleanup-image/Restore health and press ENTER.

• When you try to install windows 7 64 bit, he asked me to remove the disc and start over, but it does not help. Help, please.

  So I have a 32-bit windows system 7 and I'm trying to upgrade to a windows 7 64-bit system.

  You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.
