Windows doesn't open after downloading SP3

Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

I downloaded SP3 on windows xp SP2.  Windows will not open.  Said that a problem is due to new downloaded software.  I started in safe mode and restored on the eve so at least I can use my computer.  How can I download SP3 without risk?  Automatic download keeps wanting to download it.  I download all the other updates.   Help ideas:

  • You have problems with programs
  • Error messages
  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem

Well, the problem is resolved.  I have the AMD processor.  During the installation of sp3, it changed some registry values and we had to come in and change their return.   The people at microsoft were great and walked me through the process.   For your reference # 800 936 2909 if is1 you need to solve a problem.   Thank you

  • DVD player doesn't work after installing SP3 for Windows XP.

    DVD player doesn't work after installing SP3 for Windows XP. That it disappeared from "MY COMPUTER". Device Manager sees it, but there's a yellow exclamation mark over it. See the BIOS of the motherboard and it still works in the BACK. I know SP3 is a collection of updates, but I'm not sure that is my problem. I suspect it's one of the more recent cause I have Windows automatic updates is turned on. Thank you.

  • "Confirm open after download" is no longer available in Windows 7. Now what?

    I use a piece of software to display in a glass case.  I use it to view Powerpoint files, but when files are run, instead of running like a slide show, I get a window that says "Do you want to open or save this file?" and a check box "always ask before opening this type of file.

    To resolve this problem in xp, you'll sign > Folder Options > File Types > Powerpoint > show and uncheck the box that says "Confirm open after download".  At startup, the Powerpoint file then begins as a slideshow.

    In Windows 7, the folder options method is not available.  So, how can I get the same result.  There is no option in Powerpoint to do this.  I think that a registry hack is required.

    Hi PgrimshawMVP,

    You can try this. Don't know if this will certainly help, but I hope that it should:

    Delete the following folders in the preferences:

    (a) ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe /.

    (b) ~/Library/Caches/Acrobat/

    (c) ~/Library/Caches/Acrobat/

    (d) ~/Library/Preferences/Acrobat Distiller Prefs

    (e) ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe/

    Here ~ represents your home directory. Empty your trash, restart the computer and then start the Acrobat software.

    Thank you!

    Your software was already working before the update? The program is compatible with Windows Vista?
    Do you have any of the program error message when you try to run it?

    You can check with the software manufacturer to see if they have a patch or difficulty to run on Windows Vista.

    You can also check with compatibility mode to see if it will be useful. If the program is not compatible, then you try to install and run the program in compatibility mode.
    Use the following steps:
    (1) right click on the program
    2) click Properties
    3) click on the Compatibility tab
    (4) select run this program in compatibility mode and select Windows XP or other system that the program has been run successfully operating.

    Check out the link here: make sure to run older programs in this version of Windows

  • Windows does not start after installing sp3

    I had windows xp with sp2 and sp3, I downloaded. Once the download is complete it asked me to restart the computer. Windows will not go up. No error message, but it will work when the system is in safe mode. In addition, windows update does not load. Any ideas?

    You are a candidate for this patch before installing SP3...

  • Windows Security Center opens after several tests.

    Hello, I got a virus a few months ago that was hidden in a fake antivirus which I managed to remove but disabled all security. I bought Norton 2011 witch managed to remove it. Never, since the Security Center cannot start and I was recently able to restore Windows Defender. However I still cannot start the Security Center. First of all, it will not display in any editors or the registry due to the ActiveX is not able to view. Then when I run regedit or services.msc and try to go to erase internet areas seems not not here.

    Operating system: Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2
    Computer: HP Pavilion dv2700 Notebook Pc
    Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T5550 1.83 GHz 1.83 GHz
    Memory/RAM 3.00 GB
    System type: 32-bit OS

    Hi luistarin,

    Now if it is the Security Center, please check the answers and suggestions in the following thread:http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/protect/forum/protect_start/xp-security-center-reports-virus-protection-not/1484c369-a138-4544-aa40-a3bb91dee5b9. Specifically, try the fix which is recommended.  Although written for XP, with a little tweaking because they are a little different, she can apply to Vista and W7 as well and changes should not be too difficult to understand.

    You should have probably not as well Windows Defender and Norton at the same time.  I suspect that Norton Cup defender when he installed because he believed that there could be a conflict.  Several AV products do the same thing.  Run them together can cause conflicts, freezes, crashes and make each product will not work at its full potential.  Although probably not a cause for this, it could be.  In any case, you must disable the Defender.

    You can still be infected by the virus or malware (or even something else).  Take care that I suggest the following:

    First, try the following programs if you do not, because they can help. I recommend you download, install, update and run full scans with Malwarebytes:http://www.malwarebytes.org/and SuperAntiSpyware:http://superantispyware.com/ and then run a full scan of Microsoft Security:http://www.microsoft.com/security/default.aspx. This may or may not remove the infections, but will probably not correct the damage caused by them. Even if they or your current AV software seem to work or indicate that you are not infected, you should not completely trust in them and must continue with the recommendations that follow (so it's up to you if you want to try them first, or just ignore all this and get help from an expert you really need as described below).

    Correctly and completely remove these infections can be complex and often require manual removal procedures (which may or may not be entirely effective either). Even if they work, I suggest what follows in any case, so that we can start it (you can ignore the methods above if you want it really is the way forward, but it won't hurt to them for trying).
