Hello,

Is there anyway I can get it to work again ?

Thank You

Al968im guessing xp home

whats it do when u try to go to the update home page??


try googling windows updates going to the first one



what protections do u have??


unlovedwarriorI have Avast Pro  8-)
Actually the updates seems fine until I click on the install\download button then everytime it fails installing.
Sorry, Yes it is XP Home

Al968ok what spyware protection do you have?? malware protection??


try dling and installing one at a TIME.. that works for me most of the time when windows screws upI've seen this before when an update didn't finish or got the hiccups...

Turn off automatic updates
Go to Control Panel / Add remove Programs...
Uninstall the last update listed...
TRAVEL to the update site and dload the one you just un-installed...
Install it manually...
Re-boot and turn on auto updates...
Click Windows Update from the START menu and you should be good to go...

patio.  8-)OK I'll try that
Thanks

Al968It's got nothing at all to do with it being a Dell. It is a software or configuration issue.GX1_man who said it was dell??"Hello,
