Guest smee99@gmail.com Posted August 26, 2007 Posted August 26, 2007 I recently installed a new, larger hard boot drive and cloned all the data from the old drive to the new. When I tried to access Microsoft Windows Update, I got the following message: Thank you for your interest in obtaining updates from our site. This website is designed to work with Microsoft Windows operating systems only. To find updates for Microsoft products that are designed for Macintosh operating systems, please visit http://www.microsoft.com/mac/. Also, I get control panel program errors for hotplug.dll and hdwwiz.cpl when I try to safely remove a USB flash drive. Both problems seemed to start at the same time. I am running Win 2K sp4 on a dell pc. Might anyone have a suggestion on how to fix this?

In case you're accessing the Windows Update via Internet Explorer 6 SP1 (6.0.2800.1106) and still get the error message: Go to http://winware.org/de/browsertest.php What's the shown there in the User-Agent line while accessing the site whith Internet Explorer?
