OK, I delayed updating XP to W7 until now. I find the first time there were more than 50 updates, including SP1, that were due. I checked the boxes for W7 updates and when the reboot started, a fatal error happened that was unrecoverable. I have since reinstalled W7, and applied SP1 manually. I now see that there are a few dozen updates to be applied, but I am wondering if there is a "cumulative" update available. I want to keep current, but am wary of applying multiple updates in one operation. Is there a date-order or other method of applying multiple updates. Thanks, View this thread

I upgraded to Windows 8 several months ago from Windows 7 (on-line/no disc). This week the system was installing the Windows update and shutdown normally. When I started it back up. I got the above message. When the system restarts itself, it trys the automatic recovery, but apparently it fails. After having to select the keyboard language, all I get is a troubleshoot and turn off option. Troubleshooting, I get the following: refresh - the Windows drive is locked, unlock it and try again reset - a required drive partition is missing system restore - can't specify which Windows installation to restore system recovery - internal error 0x80070002 at the command pr…

Hi,Problem with windows update, it always fails then takes forever to rollback the update, I have tried the other common answers, install updates one at a time, disable virus scanners etc, none of them work. Tried to contact Microsoft support and typically they want to be rip-off merchants and charge you to fix a fault with their product, so I am not entertaining that. I am basically fed up now and just want this crappy OS to stop wasting my time.Any help appreciated thanks View this thread

I recently restored my Vista PC to factory copy and reapplied Windows Updates. I can not connect to internet wirelessly and found out it is due to imcomplete Windows Updates. I have SP 1 installed and Windows Update indicates there is no more updates to apply. But I want to get SP 2 to apply, so I can move to Internet Explorer 9. How do I continue with the rest of Windows Updates? Do I just to get the SP 2 from Windows Update Catalog directly? Are there any other updates needed prior to the Vista SP 2? Prior to this Windows Update repeatedly want me to appy SP 1 even it has been sucessfully installed. I had to hide that SP 1 update in order to move on. View t…

Hi! I had 5 updates which appeared on Thrusday 14 Mar 2013. After they had installed it asked for my password as usual. Then a black screen, however the curser still moved around. Ctrl,Alt, del worked and the normal Windows 7 page appeared. By clicking Run, Browse then right clicking Control Panel I had an operating panel and was able to back step the updates. Everything was then fine. The updates then reinstalled that night - same problem. All my drivers are up to date. I have a new power unit ( the fan went on the old one). I do notice that in Task manager there is no "explorer.exe" process running after the updates. Also in "My Computer" it lists 3 extra drive…

Bought a new Netbook MSI U180 with Windows 7 Starter, running ok except that Windows Update will not run, says "Windows could not search for new updates" Error Code 8024402F Windows encountered an unknown error. Seems to be a lot of problems listed for Windows Update not running but no solutions appear to work. Do you think it is a fault with this Netbook and should I return to supplier for a refund or exchange? Frightened if I exchange it will have same fault. Thanks. View this thread

Installed two of three updates yesterday. Computer is set to update automatically but apparently it does not always work. The above mentioned update did not install. The is the second time this year alone that I have had this problem. I am not a computer "geek" so this is VERY frustrating. I have tried all the troubleshooting that I understand but do not feel comfortable disabling or turning off something in order to install an update. Just how important is this update? Also, after installing the updates when I went in to check for updates the computer now shows that I have NEVER checked for updates. My installed updates are a mile long. View …
