Can't download and install Windows Updates or install any downloaded Microsoft Fix it or Patches.Platform: Windows Vista Home Premium 32bit. Installed of Installation disk I made of my original Compaq hard drive. I made a clean install on a new hard disk (for more space) the old one worked great. After the Vista install I installed service pack 1

and 2 in that order. Those seemed to download and install okay. Then I attempted to get the updates, that when things went side ways.Equipment: Compaq Laptop C500 series. I originally got an error code 8024A00 every time I tried to update windows from the security center.I then tried to look online for what was wrong and tried a number of service fixes and tried to download and install windows fix it from the page with a fix that was to help me fix the problem. That didn't work. I finally did get the fix it program to download

but it would not install. I tried to d/l a stand alone install program for MS that failed. In the mean time every time I tried to install on of these MS fixes suggested and support bulletinsI was getting an error code 0xc8000222.I have been able to d/l all sort of programs and install them from everybody outside of MS with the exception of the service packs I haven't been able to install anything else for MS.I can't think of anything else that might be of help to any of you that would venture to help me out. I will keep an eye on the forum since I believe my online security could be compromised by not having the latest security updates.Thanks in advance from an old guy that probably knows just enough to get in trouble and not get out by his self.rjallred1945
