Guest barrowhill Posted September 24, 2007 Posted September 24, 2007 When attempting to run Windows Update on my Vista PC test bed, I end up with error 800b0100 (when trying to download an update to the windows update software). I've performed some suggested solutions on this forum but to no avail. I've checked installed updates, found those that are missing and tried to download. Tried is the operative word. On the Vista machine (P4 3.2 GHz and 2GB RAM), download appaliingly slow. Reverted to another machine (P3 733Mhz 512RAM) running XP and download no problem to removable disc. Updated Vista machine with missing updates. Running Updates again, as before, keep getting asked to download and install an update to windows update. Now, with all updates installed I get error 80072ee2 (reason for slow download ??). Research points to perhaps a firewall problem but here's the rub...........Windows firewall is disabled as I'd tested Panda IInternet Secuiry 2008 Beta. This is now longer installed - No AV or Firewall running on test bed - but Security Centre says it's up and running (!!!???). I can'y uninstall (it's not there) and I've removed all traces of Panda (other than Legacy) from registry. Security Centre still reports it running (!?) This erroneous report may be cause of problems but I'm at a lose of what to do now. Any bright sparks out there that could point me in right direction ????
Guest barrowhill Posted September 24, 2007 Posted September 24, 2007 Update........... As Security Centre appears to be erroneously reporting Panda IS 2008 (Beta) up and running when it is no longer installed, I've stopped the security centre service and when run update again this time it works. i.e states that there ure updates to install. Currenly downloading (21.7MB) but very slow - I've a 4Mbps cable connection and normally download around the 475MBps range. Certainly nowhere near this (1% every 4 to 5mins ??) Something still wrong. Can Security centre be repaired or removed and reinstalled ?

Guest barrowhill Posted September 26, 2007 Posted September 26, 2007 Robert, Absolutely sure. Checked Program Files for Panda folder, ran Search for all things Panda and ran Registry Crawler also for all things Panda. Only items noted were Registry Legacy entries and nothing for Panda Internet Security 2008 "Robert Aldwinckle" wrote: > "barrowhill" <barrowhill@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message > news:4270820B-A1BC-49F0-8658-AC1CD9A33A07@microsoft.com... > > Update........... > > > > As Security Centre appears to be erroneously reporting Panda IS 2008 (Beta) > > up and running when it is no longer installed, I've stopped the security > > centre service and when run update again this time it works. i.e states that > > there ure updates to install.

Guest barrowhill Posted September 26, 2007 Posted September 26, 2007 TaurArian, Thanks. I've persevered and though I'm not sure what I did to get it working correctly, all appears OK now. In the end I stopped the Security Centre Service via Admin Services thinking that if this is erroneously detecting Panda running when I'm certain it's not installed (see response to Robert A), by stopping the service it might allow progression. Indeed it did. This time it allowed the install of update software for the update Service. and then went into checking for updates. Inititially got an immediate 8024001b error so tried again and this time came back with 9 important (21.7MB) updates. Not sure of mathmatics here as 10 in total and 8 checked (2 Hardware unchecked). Anyway, started to download. Very slow and completed in about 50mins. - 6 installed, 3 failed with errors 80072ee2, 8023302c and 80072efe. Ran update service again and this time selected hardware items - there wa sone for NVIDIA graphics but thought the one for Realtek NIC might have a bearing. Successfully installed both. Restart PC and run update again. This time downloaded and installed 3 remaining updates without any significant delay. So, now appears OK but not certain as to cure.???
