the update does not apply to your system

Discussion in 'Windows Vista' started by Moshe S. Raab, Ph.D., Aug 1, 2009.

  1. i have been trying to install some updates to my (new) Vista Business X64
    SP2 system (4GB RAM).
    i get an error that says "The update does not apply to your system"
    why doesn't it apply?
    one of the updates is a driver update for the Microsoft Wireless Notebook
    Presenter Mouse 8000
    the other two Update for Windows Vista Service Pack 2 Management Tools for
    Hyper-V for x64-based Systems (KB970203)
    and Hyper-V Remote Management Update for Windows Vista for x64-based Systems
    (KB952627)

    Why does it matter? Windows Update "knows" what belongs on your
    system and what doesn't.

    Dunno what to tell you. If WU says they aren't for your system, then
    they aren't.

  5. Hello Moshe,

    The first step is to remember famous words of wisdom: if it ain't broke,
    don't fix it!

    The second step is to NEVER do an upgrade with anything that didn't come
    from the manufacturer or a tяusted source..

    I would never install a driver or driver update provided by Windows Update.

    Do *not* get hardware updates from the Windows/Microsoft updates web page
    unless your hardware happens to be Microsoft manufacturered...

    Good luck

    Most likely the updates you are trying to install are already included in
    SP2 or are 32 bit OS updates only or are for applications that are not
    installed on your Vista Business system

    His intent was to install the hyper-v remote management and Microsoft
    advises he needs to install the update first. Obviously, his Windows
    configuration has been modified by previous updates or software, i suggest
    searching Microsoft downloads and seek an update to fix the corrupt
    file(s)/driver etc. so that he can proceed with the update and the management
    install.

    Hello Moshe,

    were you able to download and install updates, if not, you will want to go
    to Microsoft.com/support updates and search for an update called KB947821 v4
    x64 which is a standalone package and fixes problems in "update" (whee).
    After you install that update, I think you'll be in good shape to install the
    other updates. I had the same problem for months, and finally took the time
    to figure it out. Good luck.

    Since this is a "new " system-- Is it really Hyper V capable?
    Some are not. Some may have to have a BIOS setting changed.
