Updates refuse to install
"Joe Corey" <klrjoe[ at ]comcast.net> 12.07.2007 21:36:47
On the 10th of July, I was notified that there were 6 updates to be
installed, ever since then it says updates were installed successfully,
prompts me to restart which I do, upon reboot the welcome screen says
configuring updates, after login it says updates were not able to be
installed???
The updates were all published July 10, 2007

KB929916
KB935807
KB936357
KB905866
KB933928
KB937077

Microsoft checks for solutions and says there are none. I am running Vista
Ultimate x64 on an intel core 2 E6600, 2GB RAM, Nvidia Geforce 8800GTS, WD
Raptor X 150GB 10,000rpm HD Giga-Byte GA 965G-DS3, everything is vista
compatible, this is clean install, not an upgrade. I have removed all
anti-virus and disabled windows defender. I deleted all temp files and
cookies. I am running out of ideas.

In In Control Panel (Classic View) > Windows Update, try de-selecting all
but one, and install each one one-at-a-time. Posters have noted a problem
with one update disallowing the others, but are noting different KB's as the
culprit .

When/if you are left with an update that won't install, (Quoting a forum
poster on another site):

"I experienced the same problem on 2 out of 3 of my computers. If you (1)
fully shut down after installation instead of restarting, or (2) repeat the
update process a few times, it will eventually take. I'm not sure if one of
those approaches is better than the other, but one worked with each of my
patching problems."

Make sure your system dates are correct.

Thank you guys for the prompt assistance, none of your ideas worked. I
searched google and downloaded the updates manually one at a time, all
installed except KB935807


It appears that many others are having problems with that one as well. I
downloaded it manually and it says succesful under update history however,
vista keeps prompting me to install it and If I allow that it just restarts
and fails...

SOLUTION to KB935807
"Joe Corey" <klrjoe[ at ]comcast.net> 13.07.2007 04:44:59
Guys I created a 2nd user account, made sure it was an admin not a limited,
installed the update manually using the downloaded file from microsoft
website and it installed successfully, after reboot it no longer shows up in
the list of available updates!
