I have an error code 80070643 after installation of KB2685813.I tried using minimal Windows startup, Windows Update "fix it", update readiness tools, it didn't help. I also installed .NET Framework 4.I also have an error code 80073AA2 with KB2592687, but it's not an important update. There's also a problem with the installation of IE 9.Those problem are on a computer using Windows 7 home Premium in French (Canada). Thank you,Simon View this thread

I just purchased a microsoft wireless 2000 desktop with wireless encryption of keystrokes. The set up went great but when I try to log in to my bank it will not let me. Every time I enter any numbers or letters with the keyboard it keeps putting in a bunch of extra dots and 8s and will not log in. How do I make this product work with my bank and other log in sites? What does the encryption do to change things? View the thread

Three months ago, I purchased a brand new Windows 7 computer - Intel Core i7-3770/ 8.0 GB. During three months period, I had ZERO problems/issues with my computer. After receiving e-mails from Microsoft "What are you waiting for", I upgraded it to Windows 8. Since then, I have had two refresh, and four days ago, a clean install of Windows 8, because NOTHING WORKED. No refresh, no reset, no MS-DOS, no restore point, no repairs, etc... What to do when you get the following message on "the most stable", Windows 8, operating system? "The drive where Windows is installed is locked. Unlock the drive and try again." I got that message after the following: I wanted to open a PDF file from my customer on OUTLOOK - a regular, every-hour procedure - and my computer froze. Nothing worked therefore, only manually disconnecting my computer from the power source, I was able to shut it down. After I restarted, I could not get passed the login screen - my computer used to enter the "blue background color and nothing else" mode. I decided to use USB Flash drive to repair Win8 but it failed. I wanted to refresh my Windows 8, but I got that message: "The drive where Windows is installed is locked. Unlock the drive and try again." Just 4 days ago, I did a "clean install" of Windows 8 OS. What should I do besides another "clean install" of Windows 8? I've tried SFC/SCANNOW in MS-DOS but got the following message: "Windows Resource Protection could not start the repair service". If I click on "Re-image your computer" -- "Advanced" -- "Add Drivers" -- "OK", I can see my computer files. But of course, I don't have an image of my computer. If I try to use System Restore, I get the following message: "To use System Restore, you must specify which Windows installation to restore. Restart this computer, select an operating system, and then select System Restore" View the full article

hello, I just bought a new laptop carrying windows 8 and every time i get the message requesting i restart my system to install the latest changes, i get stuck on the "restarting screen" for hours. On 2 occasions i waited 4 hours until i finally decided to simply power down and restart , i even got a message the first time telling me the system would be done with updating/installing in 2 days.... i dont think its caused by a slow system as i run a hp Pavillion ( ENVY m6 ) with a 1.9 Ghz processor and 8 Gigabytes of RAM, it seems like plenty to me... is there anyway i can have at lease a "status bar" on the restarting screen, that way at lease it would tell me if the system froze or is actually doing something? Or better yet is there a way to FIX this issue at all? i remember long updates on vista but the worst i had was about 2 hours... thank you View this thread

I've discovered that my colour picker, the standard one that comes with Windows and is used in Paint, WordPad, Live Mail et al has many issues. It worked perfectly before and now I have issues. 1) seems like the Mask on the Fields is set to 2 as I can only enter 2 digits into any of Fields and RGB is (###, ###, ###) 2) if I select one of the custom colour boxes, then the picker crosshairs will not pick a colour until I move the arrow on right. Any suggestions? Is this a .Net update I shouldn't have allowed? (The colour picker for Office has no issues) TIA View the full article

I installed Internet Explorer 10 for Windows 7 on my laptop which runs Windows 7 64bit. Everything was fine until I started updating my laptop with the latest updates. After installing all the updates, IE 10 will not go to any website and continues to say "Page can't be displayed" for anything. I uninstalled IE 10 and reinstalled and same issue. I then did a System Restore back before updating my laptop and then went through one by one installing updates to see if I could find an issue with one of the updates. After much time, I found that "Security Update for Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5.1 on Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 for x64-based Systems (KB2729452)" is the issue. I installed all other updates besides that one and IE 10 still works fine. I did test (KB2729452) and it gave me the issue again. Is this update very necessary to have? Others have this same issue?

I just opened my Vista Media Centre and - whilst my existing TV recordings are accessible and playable - most of them have lost their programme title and description info. Only programme recording date/time and length are shown. I checked the 'raw' files on my hard drive and they are all ok. Any ideas how to get the details back? View this thread
