| 690174 | 2008-07-19 03:13:00 | thanks but mcaffee is not installed on the computer so appears to be a different problem. | smokey (13809) | ||
| 690175 | 2008-07-19 03:59:00 | This may or may not be of some help- its one of the attempted fixes in the other post I tried. It is a bat file that I located from a Vista Forum that when run, attempts to locate and repair unsuccessful updates for vista. If previous ones are damaged, this may cause problem with new updates installing. It didn't work in my case, but may in yours, download the zipped file from here (dl1u.savefile.com) - unzip it and double click to run, you will see a whole stream of files being checked, once finished retry the update. One of the problems I had was it keep saying Access Denied. (Even running as Administrator) |

| 690176 | 2008-07-20 00:31:00 | When first running Vista about 6 months ago for my daughter, remember running a ? spyware programme and getting Access Denied (although running as an Administrator) and it was necessary to initially click "Run as Administrator" to get rid of Access Denied. Is there a similar setting in the programme suggested?. | FrankS (257) | ||
