  • The 3rd part of a windows update will not install. What can I do?

    Hi there Microsoft overlords. I was wondering if you could help me. I've seen a similar thread on the final update not install it, but I don't know enough about variables in order to know if it is a minor or major problem and how to fix it. Any help woul be appreciated.

    I am running Windows Vista on a Toshiba Sataleite Pro 2010. I ran two FULL virus scans last night, with Avast free protection and another with Windows Essentials I think. Windows has found a number of serious threats that I hit the function apply on. Then I did a scan with Avast.

    Then after I finished the second virus with Avast scan, the laptop began something strange. The screen went black shortly after it (not immediately think"I") and he began to make a safe-mode-esque all programs, including the documents and my downloads of loading. He said it was a bookkit or a rootkit or something similar. I don't quite remember.

    In any case, I leave this list of command of rootkit series go on a little I don't know initially, he said "I want to check all the files of rootkit or bookkit for security", yet once I do not what that.

    I let happen to 7% completed which took between 30 minutes and an hour to reach. I then press ESC to cancel the process which he allowed me to do.

    After that, the pc began to restart dozens of times trying to reinstall a 3rd update of windows (which remains at zero percent).

    If it's any help I had a windows update for last night. I had to have one, but I postponed it for a few hours.

    Also, I think that the laptop can (MAY I'm not sure) ran out of power last night to stop.

    I think I let him run out of power because he was stupid before you stop, even if I can't be sure.

    Thanks for any help, if you need more information do not hesitate to answer.

    p.s. I tried to go to SafeMode to start again, but now it is useful. Safe mode programs load then IMMEDIATELY (until I can get to s a start menu or anything like that), she goes in this cycle to shutdown/reboot/update.

    Thank you. Helllp me :-)

    My apologies. I don't know much on the PC at all and I couldn't remember what I had done or read yesterday evening.

    Fortunately, my laptop is now fixed. I had nothing too precious that I had not already supported so my brother reinstalled windows on it again and it is fine now.

    Thanks for the help. Soon :)

  • Windows Update does not work. How can I install KB312810?

    I have recently reinstalled Windows 7 x 64 and Windows Update stopped working after installing Windows Update Agent 7.6.7600.320. I saw a post in the community which offers to download and install KB312810 to solve this problem. I downloaded it but I don't see any possibility of installing it, only to run it or save.

    If the installation of KB3102810 crashes, set never 'Find updates' automatic updates, restart, and try again.

  • I think that my system of basic windows files have been changed and currupted can someone please help!

    I get major errors that led me to think my windows files have been modified and currupted I just can't install microsoft updates they download, but I'm unable to install, I'm unable to use the Disk Defragmenter and disk scan as it said my system is already in use. I am also unable to use my acer factory restore settings because it loads but never finishes running can someone please help!

    Hello

    There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

    You can contact Acer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    http://us-store.Acer.com/RCD/

    @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

    It comes to the use of the partition Recovery of Acer to restore factory settings.

    http://Acer.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/A_ID/2631

    Note: During the process, all data stored on your computer will be overwritten. This means that all of your files, such as e-mail and photos, will be deleted. Therefore, we recommend making a backup of all data before starting the recovery process.

    To start the system recovery:

    1. Restart the computer.
    2. When the Acer logo appears on the screen, press the left Alt and F10 keys.
    3. If you are prompted with a Microsoft Windows splash screen, press the Enter key.
    4. After that the Acer eRecovery Management application is loaded, select your type of restore.
    5. Read the review and then click Next when you are ready.
    6. Click Next to start the restore process. It may take 10 minutes up to an hour fom anywhere to restore.
    7. Once the restore is complete, your computer will restart. After the reboot it will load Windows and start the installation of your software and drivers. Your computer will restart several times during this process. Once they are all completed, your computer will be like it was when you bought it first.

    @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens or the recovery Partition is damaged, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

    And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

    And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

    "How to activate Vista normally and by Activation of the phone '
