Windows 10: Why can't I update my new computer

I’ve got a big problem with Windows Update. I purchased a new desktop computer CPU two (2) days ago and when I attempt to run the Windows Update app it indicates that there many updates available but I must fix some security concerns before I can download and install them. When I open the Windows Update page the first thing that I see is this statement “Some settings are managed by your organization.” The next line is a link and reads “View configured update policies.” When I click on the link a web page opens titled ‘View configured update policies’. Information on that page informs me that my organization has established policies that prohibits me from downloading and installing updates and that my Administrator should manage all Updates. This page also list fifteen (15) policy items that would prevent me from ever updating my computer.

The problem with the above is that I am a private retired citizen. I am not a part of any Organization. Also, I am the Administrator on my two (2) desktop computers.

The desktop computer CPU that I purchased is a local made item. The motherboard is a GIGABYTE H310MH 2.0 model. Windows 10 was preinstalled on the CPU. On the Windows Update Page there is another statement that reads: “Your organization has turned off automatic updates”. I need some help with this one, please give me some assistance.

Intel E5200 Gets Updated, R0 Stepping Coming Up

Intel's Pentium Dual-Core E5200 processor is getting on course for a specifications update. The chip will feature in a new, improved Wolfdale-2M core, spec'd out as the R0 stepping, from its current M0 stepping. The new stepping is intended to add new instructions, power-management features, and bring about changes in the chip-package. A short list of known changes is as follows:

• CPUID changed from 10677 to 1067A
• Power State Indicator (PSI) support with Intel 4 series chipsets
• New instructions - XSAVE and XRSTOR
• New S-spec and MM numbers
• New halide-free chip package

Due to the changed CPUID, users may require BIOS updates to detect the CPU. According to the company, E5200 R0 should be out by April 13.

Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.


Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Best regards.


And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.

 

Intel Gives Core i3 and Core i5 Dual-Core Processors K0 Stepping Update

Intel is giving some existing 32 nm "Clarkdale" based Core i3 and Core i5 processors an update. The processors will transition to the new K0 stepping from the existing C2 stepping. The parts that will be made on the K0 silicon are Core i3 models 530 (new sSPEC: SLBX7), 540 (new sSPEC: SLBTD) and Core i5 models 650 (new sSPEC: SLBTJ), 660/661 (SLBTK/SLBTB), 670 (SLBTL). Newer and upcoming models such as the i3-550, i3-560, i5-665K, and i5-680 are already being built on the K0 stepping die. Motherboards will require a BIOS update to support the new K0 stepping processors.

The K0 stepping change includes the following highlights:

• New S-spec and MM numbers for the converting products
• Extended CPUID will change from 0x00020652 to 0x00020655
• Host RevID will change from 0x12 to 0x18
• K0 stepping package is pin compatible with C2 stepping package
• Adds Processor Context ID (PCID) support

The revised older SKUs that are built on K0 stepping will be market-available by October 16.
