• Activation of Windows XP on Packard Bell after clean install

  I do a clean Windows XP Home edition installation, so that a computer can be sold on.  I installed windws disc OEM (Packard Bell), but when I try to activate windows activation fails despite the use of the serial key on the OEM sticker that is on the side of the PC.  I checked the counterfeit site and everything seems to be OK and especially the Council.  How can I solve this?  Usually, the PC was working fine before the re install and the only change was a 1 GB 512 MB memory upgrade, any help would be appreciated.

  The operating system installed is not Pro - home. (ignore my previous post, if you got a notification)

  Hello

  Thank you for your response.

  Safe mode is different from boot were the clean boot will help disable you any of third-party applications or starting points which is the source of the problem.

• Windows Update fail to install

  original title: significant problems with Vista and Windows Update

  I'm trying to reinstall Vista. I keep running into a problem where some Windows updates fail, even when you check the history they are reported as installed. In some cases, a patch will be reported as installed once and failed three times. Often, failures are dated later than the initial success.

  If that fails, the machine does not start and I am presented with a screen asking you to go into the various forms of safe mode. What I do is starting on the installation DVD and running Startup Repair. It seems according to the most recent restore point and setting the startup process. Then, it seems that some of the fixes that have been initially successful are now chess.
  The laptop in question is a Dell Inspiron 1420 running on Vista. I did a clean install on the startup disk.
  What the hell is happening? I just want to make with this stupid installation, but I can't return the phone to its owner until each update is applied. Any help is appreciated.

  I'm not stupid either, Chief. When I got the laptop back to its owner, a virus checker will be up and active. I am a fairly advanced user so that I can get without it if I'm only hitting servers of Ms.

  Owner of the laptop is going to be behind a hardware router wireless surfing, although I go to the firewall as an extra precaution.
  Everything is up-to-date. There is no more patches. IE 9 is good to go. I don't understand how IE is critical to the security of Windows. I want that the owner of the laptop to use Chrome, because frankly it's faster and better than IE for the web standard handles.
  Have a good weekend.

• Windows Update fails to install with error code 8e5e03fb

  15 July Windows Update suddenly stopped to download and install some important files required to update Vista Home Premium SP1. The error code is still 8e5e03fb, not recognized by Microsoft, although I saw messages on Forums dating back to April 2009, mentioning only the code. I worked with Alan Leon, Support Engineer, but without success. Some updates pass through but none are helpful to the OS or Internet Explorer. So far, none of the Knowledge Base articles have been useful. Only one file, c:\windows\system32\dllcache\wucltui.dll, is missing from my system, but Alan Leon has not confirmed that it might be relevant. Alan suggested that my problem might be connected connection but his suggested change my settings did not bring the expected results. My ISP has a function that allows me to see the data to flow both up and down. When data are sent or received, it can be seen clearly but when Windows Update is running, there is no data flow showing.

  If any of the files that begin with tmp exist in this folder, do not remove any other files. Files .cat in this folder are necessary for installing hotfixes and service packs.
