Re: Vista Home Basic

Hi!

This is a pretty common problem it seems. And there are lot of sc. soloutions around the net. Some of these soloutions works for some and for some dont.

But try this that I copied from another pc forum:

#
Did you log in as the administrator? Go to Local Users (Right click on My computer -> Manage -> local users and groups ) then right click on the user named "Administrator" -> Set password -> then click on Administrator and enable the user" ... now restart your computer and log in with administrator ...



no do what my prevoious reply says::

1) Disable UAC (Control Panel -> User Accounts)

2) Restart your computer

3a) Download Windows update agent (Save it dont run it) even if its already there on your computer



x86:

http://download.windowsupdate.com/v7...gent30-x86.exe



x64:
http://download.windowsupdate.com/v7...gent30-x64.exe



3 b) Then go the folder you saved it .. Right click and Run it as administrator.

3 c) After the install is complete ... restart your computer ... and everything should work like a charm



You can now turn back UAC if you want and then restart your computer again #
