Guest Jennifer Posted October 13, 2007 Posted October 13, 2007 I am trying to download sp2 for my windows xp pro. (I can't use my zen till I do) It won't let me download any updates. It freezes on the update screen for several minutes, then finally goes to the download now icon, attempts to download for about 5 seconds and then just continues to give me the above error code. I tried to follow instructions to turn on automatic updates and for some reason it's not even an option. This error code isn't listed in with common problems and online support won't reply. Any suggestions? PLEASE!!

Guest Jennifer Posted October 15, 2007 Posted October 15, 2007 Thanks. I tried all that was recommended. Running the programs in safe mode and verifying the windows stuff. That did find a couple of problems that were fixed, but I am still having the same errors. Does anyone have any other suggestions? (Microsoft sent be an e-mail saying they would contact me with a reply e-mail in 24 hours, but it's been over that and I still haven't heard from them) "Engel" wrote: > Hello Jennifer, > > This will probably not be your solution but it is easy and can't hurt to try. > > http://groups.google.fr/group/microsoft.public.windows.vista.security/browse_thread/thread/e34050adfbb1d97b/a5393c5468ccf766?lnk=st&q=Why+Won%27t+My+Computor+Download+Microsoft+Critical+Updates+(85)+Of&rnum=1#a5393c5468ccf766 > > > I hope this post is helpful. > > > Let us know how it works ºut. > > -- > > > "Jennifer" wrote: > > > I am trying to download sp2 for my windows xp pro.

Guest Engel Posted October 15, 2007 Posted October 15, 2007 0x8024D007 WU_E_SETUP_REGISTRATION_FAILED Windows Update Agent could not be updated because regsvr32.exe returned an error. Run sfc /scannow To do this simply go to the Run box on the Start Menu and type in: sfc /scannow This may fix things quite a bit. It replaces corrupt files with intact ones, if you're not familiar with it. sfc /scannow http://www.updatexp.com/scannow-sfc.html - -- -- "Jennifer" wrote: > Thanks. I tried all that was recommended.
