• Toshiba satellite which is stuck in the installation of service Pack 1. I have service pack 2, can not fix with this cd, can I install service Pack 2 on it without loss of data or files?

  I have the laptop (Toshiba satellite) friend who's stuck in the installation of the service Pack 1.  I have service pack 2 and am wondering, since I can't fix with this cd, can I install service Pack 2 on it without loss of data or files?

  PC claims service pack1 cd with file asms

  When you use service pack 2 cd can not load product catalogues, it is fatal error, the Setup logs files should contain more information.

  Why not integrate Service Pack 2 and Service Pack 3 on her XP CD by following the instructions here (using another PC):

  http://en.community.Dell.com/support-forums/software-OS/w/microsoft_os/1443.aspx
  Copy all data on an external hard drive, do a clean install using the XP CD updated (preferably on the BIOs)
  Then, install the drivers from the system, then Microsoft Security Essentials, Windows 7 Firewall Control (XP free Version) and Malwarebytes' AntiMalware (free or Pro) or whatever you prefer security.
  Then copy the files over.
  This will probably lead to the best performance.

• I can't install service pack 3, I get an error that ntkrnlpa.exe is in use by another application

  I search on the forum and found that another user had the same problem but nobody answered.

  What happened is that I had a few viruses that my computer shuts down completely.  I have simply no money to buy or update of protection against the virus at the moment.  So, my computer crashed.  Then I had to use my system restore disks to restore my computer.  Then, after that I restored my computer now goes to the blue screen and scans files each time.  At the end of the list is a message: unable to write to the boot sector (according to me, it is said).

  Then I accidentally downloaded a virus.  He was disguised as a MS program and was called FixIt.  I couldn't get down there and he asked for credit card information.  I don't give any information and was able to use a browser to display the McAfee, then remove.  Then I used Malwarebytes to remove some other virus.  Not knowing what else to do, I tried to defrag and received an error message that my C: drive has been corrupted.

  My CD Player no longer works and my computer has problems.  I thought that if I downloaded the FixIt problem, it could solve some of the problems it is to have my computer.  It won't work because I have not installed Service Pack 3.

  When I try to intall Service Pack 3, it extracts files and brings me to setupwizard and then gets up to a certain point, and I get an error message as follows:

  c:\windows\system32\ntkrnlpa.exe file is open or in use by another application.

  I don't know what else to do.  I have everything turned off.  I tried to download and save to my desktop and it still won't work.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  When I ran Process Explorer, I have disabled this file ntkrnlpa.exe.  I couldn't tell what was using this file - but I got the Google Redirect virus, so I thought that a virus has access to this file and prevents me from doing anything.  I don't know if that was the case, it was just my guess that it was what was going on.

  It worked for me.  It temporarily disables this file and then you can install Service Pack 3.

  I received instructions on my site quietfish.ca if you want to check.

• Why can not install "Microsoft difficulty it Tools.

  Why can not install 'MICROSOFT DIFFICULTY IT TOOLS?

  After re-installation and update of XP, I had trouble to install Microsoft fix - it. When I downloaded it, I was told that it was a mistake and asked to try again later. (Frustrating, there is no error number and no information on the nature of the error.)

  Looking at my logs of errors (start > Panel > administrative tools > component services > Event Viewer, I could look at the logs.)  In this case, I found a mistake for CARPET (Microsoft automated troubleshooting service).  An internet search will find many very official looking websites offering downloads to fix the problem, but don't be fooled, most (all?) of these sites are trying to download a file that contains a virus or malware.  Use rather a search on internet of the type of error and the error number to find the measures to take to resolve the problem manually.
  In this case, the correction of this error was relatively simple but hard to find (thanks WR203). Go to start > Control Panel > administrative tools > services and right click on Microsoft automated troubleshooting services and select Properties. On the connection tab, select the radio button for "this account:" and enter "NT\SYSTEM authority" (without the quotes).  You must then provide and verify the password of your system.  If successful, you will be asked to restart the service. On the general tab, the startup type should be set to "automatic".
  It's well MATTE work on my system that has removed the obstacle to downloading and running Microsoft Fixez_ the.

  Hey there.  I recently did a factory reset and now I can't seem to install service pack 1... It says its installed but when I search for new upates I get the same so far again and again and again.  any ideas?

  I don't think it is a good update of the service pack, a because it was only 1.9 MB, but every once its installed, I look for new updates and get the same thing.  its driving me crazy.  I can't keep getting my system at a speed without this service pack

  Hi Jools101,

• 64-bit Vista will not install service pack 2

  I'm running the 64 bit version of vista buisness. I tried to install service pack 2 using the automatic update, but it has not installed. I also tried the manual download. He gets to halfway done installing, then gives me an error 0x800f081f code. He told me to install the system update readiness tool. I tried to install it, but that no longer works. Not even done a selective sartup with everything disabled except for windows services works.

  Hi relik_66,

  I suggest that you check your system for corrupted files.  You use the tool (SFC.exe) System File Checker to check and repair corrupt system files.  To do this, follow these steps:

  1. open an elevated command prompt. To do this, clickStart, 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 on 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.

• I can't install service pack 3 for Win XP because my computer says that I am not allowed - see my administrator.

  I'm starting to load sp 3 and she's going through the installation but, by the end, a box appears that says that I'm not allowed and see my administrator.  It is a single computer; I sign as administrator (I even tried signature the administrator mode without failure).  SP 2 has been installed without any problems.   How can I solve this problem to install SP 3?

  I read somewhere that if this computer was used as a test for SP3 Beta site, it could be causes of the problem.  Does anyone know if this is true, and if so, how can I know if my computer has been used for the test.  I have no notes, but there is something in the back of my mind that says that several years ago, I sign up as a beta Test site.
