Guest Dunk Posted October 22, 2007 Posted October 22, 2007 I have XP Home (upgrade from ME) can from PC World. I have the product key and it is all reg with Microsoft. So I can down load updates but they fail to install.I have a print out of the screen that comes up after, if I have enough room I will type it out so u can see. FAILED UPDATES Problem: Apromlem on your pc is preventing updates from being downloaded or installed. Solution:To fix the problem, try installing the updates again.If that dosn`t work, use the Troubleshooter to try to solve the prolem. Nvidia NVIDIA GeForce2 MX Microsft Corp-Video-NVIDIA GeForce2 MX Microsoft Windows XP Microsoft.NET Framework2.0:x86(kb829019) Remote Desktop Connection (Terminal Services Client 6.0) for Windows XP(kb925876) Microsoft .NET Framework3.0: x86(kb928416) Update for Microsoft Core XML Services(MSXML)6.0 Service Pack 1(kb934268) Root Certificates Updates Sercurity Updates for Windows XP(kb933729) Cumulative Security Update for IE 7for Windows XP(kb939653) Security Update for Outlook Express for Windows XP(kb890830) Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool-October 2007(kb890830) There is other software but not critical.

These two: (1) Updates are not installed successfully from Windows Update, from Microsoft Update, or by using Automatic Updates after you repair a Windows XP installation http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943144 (2) Get Dial-a-Fix: http://wiki.djlizard.net/Dial-a-fix Use its options to fix: - Windows Installer - Windows Update - All the Registration Center options.

Guest Engel Posted October 22, 2007 Posted October 22, 2007 Hello Dunk, I'd suggest If you have a root-kit detector installed, run that, if none is installed, try F-Secure Online Virus Scanner: http://support.f-secure.com/enu/home/ols.shtml Download Superantispyware http://www.superantispyware.com/supe....html?rid=3132 Run Ewido (now known as AVG Anti-Spyware) http://www.ewido.net/en Also I would suggest running a HijackThis to see if your computer is infected. Please read this guide before actually doing the procedure And it has all of the links for downloads you need. Preparation Guide for use before posting a HijackThis Log http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic34773.html I hope this post is helpful. Let us know how it works ºut. I'm sure more knowledgeable people (MVPs) will be along soon. Good luck - -- --- "Dunk" wrote: > I have XP Home (upgrade from ME) can from PC World.

Dunk wrote: > I`m sorry but that is the first reply you use to anyone with a > simular problem and YES I have tryed BOTH of them and no it dosn`t > solve it. Dunk, Pay attention. I know you are frustrated, so let me explain the post to you despite it being fairly clear from the first sentence of my reply... That answer was *NOT* for your direct benefit. It was for the benefit of anyone and everyone else that *might* choose to look into your problem. They have NO IDEA what it is you have tried - and since you chose to leave out what you have tried AGAIN in your posting - I felt at liberty to make sure those reading your new post on the same problem you have posted about before got to know that you have tried the standard 'tried and true' methods that fixes most people's issues in this case. I am trying to help you help yourself. Otherwise - yes - you were BOUND to get one or both of those answers again - because despite what you MIGHT think about people who answer questions on newsgroups - most of them cannot read minds and they cannot see your screen and logs and they cannot see the piece of paper you printed out with lists of things to try to fix the problem. You have to give complete details in a single post or conversation... Not start a new post and 'add new details' thinking someone will use their valuable time to review your past posts on the matter - if they even bother to guess you might have some. In other words - if you want help - be friendly to those trying to help you and try to provide them with the information they don't have because they are not directly involved. Also note that you mentioned that there is more updates available and failing than you have listed, but they are not critical updates. Many of the ones you listed are not either. Example(s): - The NVidia driver update - do *not* get driver (hardware) updates from Microsoft unless the hardware in question is a Microsoft product. Go to the manufacturer's web page and get them there. - .NET Framework 2.0 and/or 3.0 (If you have nothing that uses it - NVidia software *might* - then you don't need these two.) - Remote Desktop Connection 6.0 (You need this only if you want the latest version and/or will be connnecting to Vista machines - notice you will still have to currently disable NLA on the Vista machines.) Help those reading your posts help you. Maintain a single thread - try to format the posts so they are legible and give as much information (including what you have tried) in said posting. Don't assume anyone knows you, your problem or what your capabilities are. They don't. You are among blind strangers here as far as you should be concerned. However - these blind strangers just may have the answer you need. -- Shenan Stanley MS-MVP -- How To Ask Questions The Smart Way http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
Guest Dunk Posted October 22, 2007 Posted October 22, 2007 I do apologise, my frustration got the better of me.The updates I listed came up as High priority updates.

The idea to post anew isn't really a bad one - as buried as some of your other posts were (some of them were replies to other people's posts and not your own thread on the matter.) I do *not* work for Microsoft. I voluntarily answer questions in these newsgroups just to try and help when I can. A lot of problems that show up get repeated over and over - thus my identical answers in some cases. No reason to re-write the good answer until it fails to work. I am as interested in the solution to your problem as you are in some ways - as it's a surprise that the other methods did not work. The only thing I would suggest at this point is a repair install of Windows XP followed by the advice from the first of the two solutions I give. That way if somehting in the Windows XP installation is awry - the repair install should catch it and then the Windows Update issue that is bound to arise after the repair install will be fixed by the original advice.
