    hi,

    was wondering if anyone can help me out on this one:
    windows wants me to update after every pc session and probably because one
    update (KB970653) fails everytime.
    It's quite annoying so if anybody knows a solution to this problem.....
    thanks in advance [​IMG]
     
  2. Hello Vince,

    When posting to this Newsgяoup at least provide us with details of the
    Operating System you are using
    including Service Pack level,
    and what is the antivirus/security suite installed and
    is a 3rd party fiewall being used ??.
    <http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555375>

    In windowsupdate.log scroll to the very end of this log file, and then
    work back to the beginning of that last update attempt.

    Cut and paste just that tail end of the log file to a response in this
    thread.

    Let's see if we can tell what is hªppening.

    [ Start > Windows Update or open IE, click Tools, Windows Update ]
    When the installations fail, close IE.
    Now go to Start > Run > type in

    %windir%\windowsupdate.log

    Click OK or press Enter
    Please post the last 50 or so lines of the WindowsUpdate.log

    Thanks Shenan!
    installing it manually seems to have fixed the problem [​IMG]
    hopefully permanently! haha

    It is my understanding that updates KB970653, KB972036, and KB973879 are not
    good updates and to uninstall if already installed. I forget which one, (one
    of the above), but it was previously included in SP2, and if SP2 installed,
    they will conflict with each other. This from microsoft and dell. Check on it.

  6. None of them are "required" updates.

    KB973879 was re-released earlier this month.
