Anyone know what this is?? It's an update from 2009, I guess MS hasn't had a chance to getting a round to the description of it yet. The results from 'Googleing' this makes my head spin. I've asked Dell 'technical support'- talking to any species in any zoo would provide similar answers in my opinion not that I'm inferring anything of course. Thank you. (this site rawks!)

windows update worked fine until just after this update 12 days ago, I've visited H&ampS and tried most of the 'solutions' . And for the past few days most of the error codes are x8000FFFF. The following update was my last successful install. I've visited the LinkId's KB's Forums and the problems increase exponentially while the solutions have declined. Have I been attacked and hacked. I installed AVG 2013 trial nearly three weeks ago and the program acts like it can't or won't do as advertised. I was seriously considering buying AVG now that I finally got my monthly funds. But if have to buy an A-V, I sure don't want one that isn't protecting my comp. My firewall …

I downloaded the windows 8 release preview. Now i have a windows 8 pro on DVD and whenever it starts installing, a blue screen comes up, either something like pointers error or kernel security check failure. I've tried following relevant links to perhaps buy it online but this yields the same result. I can't find my windows 7 disc so i can't revert the system back either. View this thread

Hi, I am currently unable to install updates be it Windows Updates, Java updates, Skype updates or any other program updates. I believe this to be a Windows Installer problem and have tried every potential solution I could find online including making sure the service is started, registering the service via the cmd prompt and even updating the Registry. I do not know what else to try. I am running Vista SP2 32-bit. The error message always says that "another installation is in progress" when it isn't (or it is but it doesn't update successfully). I am grateful for any other ideas. Cheers Marc View this thread

I have hidden some update relatings to '.NET Framework 2.0 and 3.0' that keep failing. Having found a possible solution I would now like to try them again but 'Restore hidden updates' does not work. I was abit doubtful about it as it is much fainter than the other Options. How do I get round this ? View this thread

KB2656351 and KB2600217 updates keep asking to be re-installed even though they have been installed &quotsuccessfully&quot many, many times. I have Googled solutions and have tried the .net cleanup tool which fixed the problem for a few days and I have done Microsoft Fix-It which occasionally fixes the problem for about 2 computer restarts. Help? If I hide these updates or ignore them will something bad happen? View this thread

I have tried installing this a countless number of times now and have never succeeded. I have followed instructions from other peoples' posts and answers on these forums and have never had any luck. I'd hate to resort to wiping my entire computer just for this stupid update but it isn't looking too good. If you need any info don't hesitate to ask. The sooner this gets resolved the better!
