i have corndawgs laptop right now. it won't run the updates. i have tried to manually update it and have tried to let the automatic updating work. it just acts like it is going to update and then just shuts off without actually installing the updates. it says it has around 45 updates that need to be installed. and the damn thing takes forever to start up
 anyone got any ideas how to fix?

Did you do the trusted sites thing?
Open Internet Explorer > Tools >Internet Options > Security > Click 'trusted sites' icon >Click Sites > uncheck 'require server verification' Then add following sites : http://*.windowsupdate.microsoft.com http://*.windowsupdate.com. If that doesn't work the likely cause of those error codes is missing or corrupted files: WINHTTP.DLL, WUAUCLT1.DLL, WUAUENG1.DLL, WUAUSERV.DLL, CDM.DLL, WUAPI.DLL,WUPS.DLL,WUCLTUI.DLL, & IUENGINE.DLL (all in the \windwos\system32 directory) Try uninsatlling and reinstalling Live Toolbar if you have it installed. Also has this computer recently had a virus?? If the files in the system32 directory are owned by admin rather than by system this will stop the automatic updates. SEt the the file ownership back to system  If still not working open a command prompt as an administrator, and type the following commands. Press entter after each command: regsvr32 wuapi.dll regsvr32 wuaueng.dll regsvr32 wuaueng1.dll regsvr32 wucltui.dll regsvr32 wups.dll regsvr32 wups2.dll regsvr32 wuweb.dll ^ You may get some errors on the above. Finally: If all eslse fails you can always runa system file check (SFC) as admin run: sfc/scannow However you may need to reinstall some drivers (sounds/graphics etc., after running this) that's all from me MonkeyFiend --------------------  |
