Win XP SP3 cannot update manually, but the automatic update is fine

I've just updated from XP SP2 to SP3, I just found out that I could not manually update in microsoft update, but the auto update schedules are ok. So is there a way to fix this?

Please contact your school of departmental it or SysAdmin to get help, Roland.

IMHO the computer must NOT be connected to the internet or local networks (i.e. other computers in your school) in its current state. All school & personal data should be considered at risk, if not already compromised.

  • No sound from the speakers, but the headphone jack works fine

    Original title: computer with no sound

    My computer has no sound coming from the speakers, but the headphone jack works fine. Can someone help me with this?

    Hi jbreezy,.

    We recommend you to check if the speaker is defined as default playback on your computer device. To do this, try the following steps:
    a. right click on the sound/volume icon in the right corner of the task bar, then click on "adjust audio properties".
    b. click on the Volume tab, click Advanced under Speaker settings, select the speaker and click ok.
    c. click on the tab Audio, audio playback device, select default.
    d. click apply and then click ok.
    e. check if the problem persists.

  • Download Microsoft Office Home & Student 2007 but the automatic updates do not work.

    Hello. Thanks in advance for your help here.

    I am at a loss to know what to do.

    Recently, I downloaded Microsoft Office Home & Student 2007, which seems to be very well. The problem is the automatic updates do not work. After searching online, I did the start > run > Winver and he says I have Service Pack 3. Then I went to control panel in Add/Remove Programs, and even if it is listed, there is no indication that it is actually installed.

    I remember a year or there are problems with SP3, when I tried to upgrade to IE8 so "I THINK" I removed it. Probably shouldn't have done that!  But IE8 has worked fine once I removed it. Microsoft says that we will no longer receive automatic updates to SP2 in June and so we have to upgrade to SP3.  Well, I just don't know what I have on my computer at this point!

    Anyway, now I get these failed messages on the updates for the Office:

    The 2007 Microsoft Office Suite Service Pack 2 (SP2)
    Update for Microsoft Office System 2007 (KB967642)
    Update of security for Microsoft Office System 2007 (KB951944)
    Update of security for Microsoft Office 2007 (KB951550)

    So I thought I'd download the SP2.  But I did not know if Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 2 actually means I have SP2 installed or not.  And I got in such a mess last year I don't want to take any chances again.

    I'm sorry that it is a message that is too long. I tried to print screens to attach more information, but that did not work. Let me know what you need.

    Thank you very much in advance for your help.

    Diane

    I found more information. Looking in my history of update for automatic updates, all 4 of these updates failed have the same error Code which is: 0 x 80070663.  I don't know if this info helps solve this problem or not, but that's it.

    Hello
     

    a. you are able to download and install updates in Windows other than Microsoft Office?

    If you have SP3 listed in the Windows Version (winver) which ensures that you have Windows XP SP3 installed.
     
    Let us download the updates manually and install them, here are the links to download.
     
     
     
     
     
    Note: Make sure also that you have the prerequisites installed as indicated in the articles above.
     
     
    I hope this helps.

    Thank you, and in what concerns:

  • all my computers cannot be started after the automatic updates!

  • PC with Win XP SP3 cannot see router Linksys 1200, although it is there and connected.

    Friend got new router Linksys E1200. Initially set up with the PC above and worked fine for a week or two.

    Then loss of the connection.

    IPhone and MAC laptop work very well on the same network and laptop can access 192.168.1.1 but PC don't even see it.

    Diagnosis of IE says winsock error.

    Re-directed configuration Cisco on PC, but it failed to honor or find the router, even if the network is showing that connections wireless connected successfully to.

    Unintalled Cisco and tried to reinstall, but it fails the process because he can't see the router.

    Update firmware as suggested for router (via MAC laptop) - now V2.004 or something else.

    Changes security wireless WEP etc attempts but makes no difference. Changing the settings in the router itself does crashing. Had to reset to the factory settings and to reconfigure a number of times already, what she does very well on the laptop, but not at all on the PC.

    Any other suggestions?

  • Cannot print wireless but the scan works

    Hello I have an Officejet 6500 a Plus which used to allow me to print wireless, but suddenly stopped.  I can scan to the computer but just can't print wireless.  I run a wireless network test report and the results are good.  When I run a test to check the wizard of the printer ink levels, I get a message indicating that the computer is unable to establish two-way communication with the device.  I turned the router, the printer and the laptop works, but nothing has changed. I also tried two different computers unsuccessfully. Any help is appreciated.

    Hello, thanks for the suggestions.  I removed and downloaded the drivers once again and it started working.  Interesting that it was a problem on my two laptops, but at home was very good.  No idea what happened, but I had to re - install the drivers on both of my laptops.

    Thank you very much for the help.  Good to know I'm not request around alone in the dark.

  • ASA-AIP-SSC-5 is not responding, but the local session works fine.

    I have several Cisco ASA 5505 s with ASA-AIP-SSC-5 IPS modules.  Some of the IPS sensors are sensitive, but others are pretty stubborn and unresponsive.  I can reach each of them through the session 1 of the ASAs SSH host terminal or console.  Is this a problem with the software of os rev currently installed or is it the modules themselves?  Current charge Rev is 6.2 (2).

    There were multiple faults (some critics) set the 3,0000 E4 version of the software that could be the cause here (specifically patches to the mainApp process both sensorApp). A good first step would be to restart properly ("reset") each module, and after they come back online and are running normally, install the upgrade package E4 3,0000.

    Once the upgrade, if this problem persists, please specify "others are pretty stubborn and unresponsive"... they do not meet attempts to connect to remote (SSH and HTTPS), but you can session in them their orders of ASA and cause the host successfully (without error)? How long are up / in line before becoming insensitive? If you the session in one of these modules _when it's unresponsive_ and the version of 'show' command question, mainApp and sensorApp processes appear as 'Running '?

    Software defects side, cause generally seen for sensors going on which are sensor oversubscription. Another thing to keep in mind is that on this particular platform/model (AIP-SSC-5), the signature updates can take quite as long as the most powerful models (which can be seen as the sensor becomes unresponsive).
