  2. Update installation error

    I have tried installing with WUA Manager and it seemingly installed and just shut down the device with no notice. (instead of restarting). It did not announce update was not installed. I had to turn on with power button. And Update history does not list the update with no notification. In contrast, the WUMT does not shut down or restart. It just notifies after 100% installation process that update was not installed with an error. In update history, the update is listed FAILED (with error)

    The lengthy process of Command prompt: DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth and even lengthier process of:
    Windows Update Reset Tool > ResetWUEng did not help.(But I found out my product Key number which Best Buy refused to give me).

    My next step would get live agent assistance from MS HELP department. Or just ditch the update.

    Insurgency wont install and run for me....

    I have played and have fully updated CS and Half life 2....
    I am using the newest client and installed the SDK.

    I am completely blown away, if i click the desktop icon it starts the sdk and then closes, and it doesn't show up in my game list...

    First mod attempt install here, followed the directions step by step on the mods website...

    Any ideas?

    Who has seen this vista update error

    When you go to Windows vista update and it tell you to update a driver that you have already updated. Then it says failed to update and gives you the error code that tell you that you already have a never version than that. WTF? Why in the world would it be trying to updated something with an older driver. Well the only way to get it out of your windows update list is to go uninstall what ever that driver is then run the update and install it. Then run the newer drivers again.

    Well I still can't get the Nivida Network Bridge to disappear out of the list. I uninstall the one in device manager and go to the update and before it's even done with that. Vista is automatically installing a newer version than is in the Vista update list.......
