Next: A Windows Update instalation failled - Code 800706BE
From: RobertAtHome on 10 Apr 2010 17:07 I have had this problem and I am running a Windows Vista Home Premium on a Fujitsu Siemens Scaleo computer. My PC uses a wireless USB connection (D-LINK DWA 140 Rangebooster) to a D-LINK DIR-655 Router. I get this problem when I try to install IE 8. I tried your idea with: runas with the only user that is an administrator (not called administrator though) and then netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled Didn't work since this requires a raise in privilege. Any suggestions? I seem to get this error code when trying to install IE updates. Windows update shows the code 80070570 when trying to to security upgrade to Windows Vista (KB974145). Gets a link to Microsoft security bulletin: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/Bulletin/MS10-009.mspx It is stated there that: "The security update addresses the vulnerabilities by changing the way Windows TCP/IP performs bounds checking and other packet handling operations." Do I have some kind of TCP/IP problem on this computer?

Any suggestions? Because your Administrator doesn't have a password assigned to it? Add a password to it then you can use it. Otherwise retry the procedure in a safe mode boot with cmd only. > > I seem to get this error code when trying to install IE updates. > > Windows update shows the code 80070570 when trying to to security upgrade > to Windows Vista (KB974145). <cmd_output OS="W7"> C:\>set /a c = 0x570 1392 C:\>net helpmsg %c% The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable. </cmd_output> That sounds unhealthy. ; } HTH Robert Aldwinckle --- |
