Update will not install + external harddrive
by Guest cheney- 3 replies
- 320 views
After several attempts to install updates using Automatic updates, I became very upset that the darn things would not install. I finally realized that the updates were being downloaded to my Seagate external hardrive instead of my computer's harddrive. I had no problems once I disconnected the external harddrive, but can anyone tell me how this happened? I would relly like to make sure this does not happen again. Thank you. -- The way you handle yourself in every problem you face will not only change you, but it will define the person you will become because of it.

Problem Installing MS Updates
by Guest Bill Rueck- 2 replies
- 305 views
I've been fighting this problem for a while. I can't install MS updates, either manual or automatic. I found Windows Installer missing from my Systems folder. The path to msiexec.exe is C:\Windows\System32. But the path in the registry is C:\WINNT\System 32. Should I change the registry from WINNT to WINDOWS? I'm running Windows XP SP2 on a HP Media Center Desktop. Thanks

I have an ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe Motherboard. It has ACPI ATK0110 on it. However, ASUS is not providing Vista drivers for this. When I run Windows Update, it doesn't find a driver for this.

For the past couple of weeks, I've not been able to use Windows update. I repeatedly get error 0x8024400E. I've tried the suggested solution on the error page: Refresh the page. In Internet Explorer, delete your Temporary Internet Files by going to the Tools menu and clicking Internet Options. Close and then re-open Internet Explorer. I can't find the error in the FAQ, in the "Find Solutions", nor hear. Anyone have any ideas?

I purchased McAfee Security Suite through Windstream for a monthly fee. I have not been able to download the program to my computer because it says : "Installation was cancelled because a required program failed to install." McAfee support says I need to download all the Window Updates in order for it to install. It will not let me download the security updates. I have a Dell computer and have worked with them and also McAfee and Windstream on this matter and it still does not let me download them. I would appreciate any help you could give me. Thanks, Janie

How can I fix this problem? When I try to change my default browser (homepage) my browser option is grayed out. When I try to use tools, internetn options from the browser toolbar, the message I get is..."This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator." This is a home PC, and there is no system administrator, except myself? Does this all have to do with those XP updates that were not working correctly a while ago? I also run Windows Defender. Could this be affecting it? My browser is currently locked on http://www.live.com. I want to change this homepage, but I'm not being…

setting WU clients to a MONTHLY (not weekly) schedule

Hello all and thanks for taking a moment to review my post. My organization has several hundred Windows 2000 and 2003 servers that we currently patch manually because of application considerations. Each application has a dedicated maintenance window where the systems engineer assigned to it logs on and visits Microsoft's update site. I hope to install a Windows Update Server to manage these patches. All of the features we need for this solution seem to be present with a single (but very important) exception. I need to have the clients downloading and installing their patches on a once-a-month basis and it appears the only option is to have them look for ne…

This has been driving me nuts! For ages I have been trying to download and install the "priority" updates. Every time I try, they fail. I review my updates, and there are no failures there, so I can't even check the error codes as there are none reported. I used the Baseline Security Analyzer 2.0.1 to manually download and install the .NET 1.1 and 2.0 updates and some other "critical" windows updates, but the other stuff (14 updates) just WILL NOT HAPPEN using the standard methods, and some not so standard methods. I can find no reasons for these failures. One thing does strike me though. Even after selecting ALL available updates, the download page says …
