Windows updates will not be installed - error Code 80070490

If the system preparation tool fixes the problem (method 1), I am advised to perform a repair of Windows installation (Vista) using the installation DVD (method 2)

However, my computer came pre-installed with the system and the manufacturer did not provide an installation DVD, so I am unable to perform this repair.

What else can I do in this case?

  • Unable to use wireless internet. In addition, my windows update will not be installed.

    Original title: extended error code = Oxfof4

    I have a couple of different symptoms. My laptop acts like it doesn't even have wireless capabilities although the exact model the same sitting next to her was a strong wireless signal (I still had internet capability on this laptop also). In addition, my windows update will not be installed.  I checked "Event Viewer" in system tools and have all sorts of errors. Error service Control Manager, "Warning b57w2k", code error Windows Update Agent and more. Still, the laptop doesn't move and accesses files, but no internet. I scanned with AVG and Malwarebytes 0 infection. Uugh!  Any suggestions?

    Many laptops have a switch that turns on or off the wireless radio.  This can be a physical switch somewhere on the laptop or a combination of the Fn key and one of the F keys.  Read the user manual for the laptop for more details.

    The warning includes "b57w2k" seems to be linked to a Broadcom NetXtreme 57xx Gigabit Controller (not wireless, wired).  You can click the copy (just below the up/down arrows) on the property sheet for the event and paste the content in your next post here.

    In general, the report that you have 'all kinds of errors' in Event Viewer is not very useful.  We do not understand what you're watching.

  • Windows updates will not download/install

    I have an Asus laptop that is about 2 years old.  I am running Windows 8 on a 64 bit system.  The laptop only periodically adjusts and downloads from previous update failed.  Now, when I start it tells me that there are 115 updates to download.  After leaving try and download these all day yesterday, he stopped, display of the progress bar on 99% c, but it will not go further.  I tried the upgrade to 8.1, but will not proceed until the updates are complete.  I had hoped that the 8.1 installation would simply replace previous updates that were needed - apparently not!

    I don't know what to do next - any suggestions?

    Thank you.

    [1] another option is probably just to let off Windows updates and continue to use it as it is.

    [2] of course, I'm protected by Norton...

    A1. Yes, if the computer will NEVER be connected to the internet or local area network (i.e. other computers).

    A2. I suspect your Norton application is not installed or working properly.

    Note: The computer must NOT be connected to the internet or local area network (i.e. other computers) in its current state. All your personal data (e.g., banking online & passwords credit card) must be considered at risk, if not already compromised.
