  Please make all below even if you have done some before as it is often the set of operations which solves
  the question.

  Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
  Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
  This will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.
  
  Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
  slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

  Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
  ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
  contacts data with a pencil eraser.

  Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
  manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

  Hope these helps.

• I have problems with the installer of Windows and Windows Update, and the solutions that I found for the two each rely on the other broken system to fix the first.

  I use a laptop HP Pavilion dv4-1220us with Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 1, a 64-bit operating system, and I have problems with Windows Update and Windows Installer. When I try to install programs, I get the following, or substantially similar message without the error code:

  "Error 1719. The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This can occur if Windows Installer is not installed properly. Contact your support team. »

  So I tried to download Windows Installer 4.5 and install it. When I try to start the installation, it always hangs on the first step, "Initializing Installation."

  After searching for a solution to this problem, I found that Windows Update may have a solution. So I downloaded the 64 bit version and got a file named 'file Windows6. 0-KB942288-v2 - x 64. I tried to run this file. He opened a box that said, in order "Prepare for Installation", "Full Preparation", and finally "Searching for Updates ', before you open a second box, which reads" click OK to install the following Windows software update: fix for Windows (KB942288). I clicked on OK in this box, which opened another box, which says at the top "updates are installed" and in a smaller section, "initializing for Installation................... »

  However, no matter how long it works, it never gets past "Setup initialization."... »

  So I tried to run Windows Update in Control Panel. He ran for a while, before giving a message saying "to check the updates, you must first install an update for Windows Update." I clicked on the button that says "install now". He has flashed, a moment, "download and installation of updates' before you go to the"check for Updates"and then he brought back the exact same upward ' to check updates, you must first install an update for Windows Update" message as before. I clicked install now once again, only to go into the exact same loop. After about four times in a loop, I gave up on it.

  So I tried to install Windows Installer 3.1v2, which took a while before saying "not enough memory is available to process this command." and the abandonment of the installation.

  So, I tried to download a program from 'Mr. Fix - it' of Microsoft. It downloaded fine and then failed on installation, because of the same Setup error I received initially.

  Finally, I tried to restart my computer and each solution is represented. Then I clean my computer and each solution is represented.

  In conclusion, the mistakes that I have in Windows Update and Windows Installer cordoned off each other, as the mistakes of each program are based on the other program to be repaired. I'm at my wit's end here. My computer works fine without one, except that I can't install new programs. I can access the internet fine, access files fine, all my scans have developed own... I don't really know what is happening. Can someone help me with this?

• I can't register for Windows update and receive the error code 0 x 80070002 when I try.

  When I try to solve the problem by following the instructions, I'm unable to start or stop the automatic updates in the field of Services.

  When I go to Windows Update and the attempt to revise my story to update, I get error 0 x 80070002 there as well.  Anyone have any ideas?  The other proposed problem was to remove the contents of the Datastore folder after you type %windir%\SoftwareDistribution in the run dialogue box, but I do not have a Datastore, just the two following folders folder: installation and WuRedir.

• Windows Update includes the Toshiba driver updates?

  Hello

  Windows Update includes the Toshiba driver updates?

  And if yes, do you know what drivers are included in Windows Update and that would be excluded?

  Thank you...

  Hello

  Microsoft and Toshiba updates are two different things.
  Toshiba drivers are offered by Toshiba, and these drivers are tested by Toshiba. Toshiba has developed a small tool called TEMPRO. This tool runs in the background and look for information on available updates.
  All updates of drivers, tools and utilities does not update automatically. It can be done by the owner of the laptop. TEMPRO just pick up info on the net and to inform the owner of the laptop.

  Microsoft updates are probably known to you. These updates are Microsoft and Toshiba has no influence on this.
  When you check the list of available updates may have included updates to the WLAN/LAN card, driver of the touchpad and device ACPI Toshiba x 64. This is defined as optional updates and cannot be updated.

  To be honest you should not update at all. For hardware use drivers provided by Toshiba only.

• Code 80070241 in Windows update and "Windows cannot verify the digital signature for this file" when you try to run any program.

  Windows Update has appeared today when we started one of our machines, informing us that there are some installed updates. After reviewing the updates, we clicked on the "Install now" button, and immediately, it failed with the above error code.

  I tried to run regedit a reason unrelated, and it came with a dialog box error with "Windows cannot verify the digital signature for this file. A recent hardware or software change might be installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged or maybe it's a malicious software from an unknown source. »

  After researching here and elsewhere on google and did not find anything suitable, put us in the Win7 disk, recovery tools and tried to go back to a previous system restore point (3 days).

  The restoration went well, restarted, but the problem persists.

  Then, we just tried to install anti-malware software, but when trying to run the installer, we get a different error message indicating 'ShellExecuteEx failed; Code 577 "and then the same message on the verification of the digital signature.

  The computer is running fine all yesterday and has worked very well since just after the new year when he has been upgraded to Windows 7. No material changes have been made, and no software changes were made by users in the course of last week.

  The computer is an AMD Athlon II X 4 with 4 GB of RAM on a motherboard Asus M4A78-EM, linking a 64 GB SSD, with a 250 GB drive SATA data/programs. GPU is a Nvidia 260, and it has a CD and DVD player as well. It is connected to our router using the gigabit ethernet interface motherboards.

  It was under windows 32 - bit XP SP3 up just after the new year. When we put in place the new SSD to replace a hard drive older than we have did a new install of XP (slipstreamed with SP3) and then used the upgrade 32-bit W7 Home premium DVD version to upgrade the system. Since then, the system runs flawlessley.

  On the machine is MS office XP, Firefox 3.6.3, AVG 8.5 and a few games such as the Turbine DDO.

  The main user account used to try to solve these problems and to run Windows Update and try installing programs is a member of the Administrators group.

  Firefox works fine, serve, and he plays the games installed very well also. AVG reports to date, with no problems and has detected no threat.

  However, try to view the registry with regedit, or start Viewer event or compmgmt.msc that all do appear the message "cannot verify the digital signature.

  ***************************************************

  Can anyone offer an opinion on what might be wrong with this facility please, and how we could do to solve?

  Cannot run chkdsk/scandisk as he bought the message "cannot verify the digital signature" etc etc.

  This morning, the machine began to behave differently - stop playing back badly, refused to start Device Manager, open Control Panel correctly etc.

  So, I reset the BIOS to boot from the CD-ROM, slapped XP SP3 in reinstalled, then upgraded to Win 7 again.

  Still have no idea what caused the problem, but it seems to be gone now - reinstalled the same applications, AV / programs anti-malware, games, etc and everything seems to go fine now.

• Problems with the installation of windows updates and reboot the computer

  When you try to restart the computer it freezes on "installation updates.do not turn off computer.". Currently have 20 updates which will not be installed. computer says CCC.exe prevents the computer from restarting and getting error code 80240016 when you try to install the updates

  Restore point:

  Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

  Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

  Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

   

  If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

  Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

  When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

  Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

  NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

  Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

  http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

  ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

  It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

  You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

  It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

  And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

• Windows Update broke the card drivers and graphic display; Impossible to reinstall either.

  On 5 October, I installed two optional Windows updates:

  1 - display - nVidia NVIDIA GeForce 6600GT

  nVidia Display software update released in July 2010

  2 Samsung - display - SyncMaster 2494SW (digital)

  Updated software Samsung screen released in August 2009

  After installation and reboot, my screen resolution is now set to 1280 x 1024 (max resolution) and the monitor is not recognized in front of a default monitor. -http://www.verityhw.com/uploader/files/1/display_settings.png

  I tried to install the latest nVidia on their site (258.96) drivers, and they say that they installed, but on reboot, there is no change.

  I tried to install the drivers for the monitor Samsung 2494SW, but he does not see a device to install the drivers on. -
  http://www.verityhw.com/Uploader/files/1/2494sw_driver.PNG

  I looked in the Device Manager and saw that there was an error with my nVidia 6600GT. -http://www.verityhw.com/uploader/files/1/device_manager.png

  By clicking on properties, I see that the error is Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43) . -http://www.verityhw.com/uploader/files/1/6600gt_properties.png

  Of course Windows has not completely stopped the device because I still have the graphics, although terrible ones.

  I looked at the drivers installed for the 6600GT and they seem to be the most recent of those (8.17.12.5896).

  At this point, I'm all out of ideas. Everything worked fine before the Windows Update and there is apparently no way to uninstall updates. (I tried to uninstall the drivers of the 6600GT, but it just keeps back to 8.17.12.5896's).

  Any help is appreciated!

• Installed the updates, but the display looks like windows 98 and the Wireless does not work

  Hello
  I use a laptop with vista service pack 2 and I tried to update windows via windows update on the recommendation of the support page from microsoft on how to unload a debugger. There are only three optional updates available, I forgot what they are and after restarting the computer the theme looked like windows 98 and my without wire might work, and also, I was still having problems with the game with the question of the debugger.

  What should I do?

  (And Norton) McAfee applications are known to not uninstall (or upgraded) themselves. The 'remains' of McAfee may be cause of your problem.

  1. download the McAfee Consumer Product Removal, save it to your desktop tool: http://download.mcafee.com/products/licensed/cust_support_patches/MCPR.exe

  2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

  3. click right on the file saved in #1 above, and then select run as administrator to run the utility. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

  4 test cycle.

  NB: If the application pre-installed McAfee subscription or free trial period has expired before you install Threatfire, the latter may not have installed correctly and can not work correctly since you installed it.

  You must download and install Windows XP Service Pack 2 (if not already installed) followed in Windows XP Service Pack 3.  You will find two of them at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads - download the "Network Installation Package" for the two and ignore the part about them being only for the professionals - the parcel I recommend you download will install with or without network connection.
