Whenever I try to install this update, it fails with error code 80070103. How can I install it properly?

Update type: Optional Intel Corporation Storage Controller software update released in September, 2012 More information: http://sysdev.microsoft.com/support/default.aspx Help and Support: http://support.microsoft.com/select/?target=hub No details to help me work out why, but I suspect that this update was not set up for proper handling of cases where the C: drive is on an SSD drive. 64-bit Windows 7 Professional SP1 with 16 GB memoryAll other Microsoft offered updates installed except Bing Desktop.

Should I uninstall security update 2823324 even if I'm not having problems with it? How should I uninstall it? KB 2839011 provides several methods of uninstalling the update for various situations, but does not describe how to uninstall it if it is not causing a problem and the system has been restarted.

It says it was installed successfully but then it says "new update ready to be installed" and it is the same one, then when I go to download the next Windows service pack 2 so I can finally download explorer 9 it says I can't download it until I download the Windows Service Pack 1 UGHHHHH??????

First, Windows 8 has set me back to square one. I cannot make heads nor tails of how to use it even after using the demo videos (which freeze sometimes and then close abruptly). Second, I cannot trust that the new HP PC will let me get through a series of screens without freezing from time to time. My old laptop which is dying, is more dependable with Word3 and Windows XP. I can work faster on the old laptop, which was slowing down due to memory needs. Still, Windows 8 lets me do half of what I need to do in double the time. I wish I could dump this new Operating system and just get XP. The computer was a gift from my daughters. I have used computers and Microsoft products for over 25 years. I learn fast but am no professional. I am very, very disappointed in this product. View this thread

I got a phone call from "Peter", a "Microsoft Representative" today, whom I am quite sure was a scam. Here's the reasons why: 1) Number one reason (and I checked with MS automated chat on this one) Microsoft will NEVER use a phone call to solicit anything. (Why would they, anyway?) 2) There was a lot of noise and chatter in the background. I think Microsoft can afford offices that will prevent this. 3) I could only understand about half of what he was saying since he had such a heavy accent from somewhere...that doesn't necessarily by itself mean it's a scam, but a red flag to count. 4) His heavily accented name was "Peter". Again, not anything in particular, except both of your ears should be perked up now... So, all this happened before he even said why he was calling. He called me because "your computer has been copied to somewhere else, and we want to help you fix it." OK....ummm...I think Microsoft could detect who copied it if they knew that had happened. You learn to see details about scam artists when you start with a few basics, like, a good basic rule for on the phone, is, if they called you as opposed to you calling them, it's not likely to be legitimate. If someone does call you, ask for a phone number to call back to verify. Even if they say, "ask for, (Peter)." Which is just what this "representative" said. This is designed to gain your trust for their crime. And don't let them distract you from actually doing that.It's hard to do if you're not used to doing this, but pay attention when you receive any kind of solicitation, whether by phone, computer, or your front door. (which isn't very safe anymore, anyway) The phone is particularly effective on this note, becuase you can't go back and re-read what was said, and you can't see who you're actually talking to.BE CAREFUL OUT THERE!!!

Have run quick and FULL scans and the warning will not go away. I am NOT using CC cleaner, nor System Care, neither is on my WIN 7 machine. No other anti-virus ever been installed. Other answers address only users of CC Cleaner and/or System Care. What do I do? Thanks, 2 hours later: discovered and downloaded/installed an outstanding Windows update, and the MSE problem has disappeared. Don't know why, but everything is back to green... View this thread

So since installing windows 8 on my laptop it has been telling that there are updates available in the store for the basic apps and a few that I have tried to install from the store. Neither the updates or the additional programs will install. I click to start the installation and they start with some pending but after a few hours I check and it says there was an error and that I should try again. What should I do to get the programs to work? I've tried the app diagnostic and it did nothing. View this thread

Every time Windows automatically updates on start-up it somehow turns off my DSL. I have DSL from AT&T and have a new Dell XPS desktop. I am unable to log on the internet. The only way I am able to log on is to restore my computer to an earlier time. This keeps happening nearly every time there is an automatic Windows update. How do I fix this issue? View this thread

Jag har en ny laptop med windows 8 av märket Lenovo. Varje gång jag försöker installera uppdateringar från windows bråkar datorn med mig. Det är inga problem att söka upp och ladda ner uppdateringar till datorn från windows update. men när uppdateringarna är nedladdade så vill datorn att jag startar om. Då jag gör det kommer följande felmeddelande upp: Det gick inte att konfigurera Windows-uppdateringar. Återställer ändringar. stäng inte av datorn. Vad beror detta på? och hur gör jag för att lyckas installera och starta om datorn med de ny uppdateringarna i behåll? Jättetacksam om någon datakunnig människa ville hjälpa mig! Tack..

Hi, Today (4/12) in my update history I saw that an update (Windows Defender - KB915597 (Definition 1.147.1685.0) had been installed successfully. However in the main Windows Update window, it says that updates were last installed two days ago (4/10). Should I worry about this, or is everything okay as long as it was a successful update?Thanks. Also, I noticed MSN's homepage says that there were 9 updates released on the 9th...it looks like I only received 7. I just re-ran an update check, and it said there are no updates available. Does it just depend on the computer? View this thread

Windows automatic updates shows Security Update for SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2 (KB970895) ready to install. I used Express Install to install the update, which appeared to be successful. Shortly thereafter, the update icon reappeared in my tray. When I opened it, it again installed the Security Update for SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2 (KB970895). This cycle keeps repeating. How can I stop it from recurring? View this thread
