• Cannot install updates for WIndows - error 80070490 and installation disc?

  original title: error 80070490 and installation disc?

  Dell, Vista, x 64 laptop.

  I can not install updates, including Service Pack 2 and IE 8. I managed to fix the other error messages, but this one is a winner.

  I can't follow the steps here because I don't have an installation DVD. The laptop doesn't have a CD/DVD-ROM internal drive and did not come with a disc because everything was preinstalled. Even if I had a disc, my computer does not recognize the CD/DVD-ROM external drive when it is plugged in (a problem at a time!), so it would always help. "The System Update tool does not work on this machine, probably because of that pesky little" compatible operating systems: Windows Vista Service Pack 2 "requirement. I so need SP2 to download the tool which will allow my computer to install SP2? Nice little catch-22 there. I agree with the irony. I disagree with not being able to install updates at all, ever.

  Is it possible to re - install without a disk? Can I solve this problem at all or I'll have to take the laptop to Best Buy and ask them to do some voodoo Geek Squad to it?

• Windows Update error 80070490 - persists

  I have Windows Vista Ultimate and I get error 80070490 when you try to make updates.

  I tried to reinstall the program with the DVD to repair damaged files, but my DVD has SP1 while the computer already has SP2, so it will not upgrade the DVD. The only option is to 'clean up' the installation or an upgrade higher.

  Any suggestions?

  I also have the DVD to upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate. It doesn't matter if I'm updating 2 updates to security in Vista before moving on to Windows 7? The new installation of Windows 7 take care of damaged in Vista files?

  Thank you
