Installed the official SP3 on a brand new Dell Inspiron Core 2 Duo 2.66 with

4 G RAM last night before installing any programs. It immediately stopped the

Windows update site from working any further - any attempted installations

failed, so I couldn't update Office etc after loading them. Did a system

restore to remove SP3 and all was fine again. Any thoughts?

Re: SP3 stops Microsoft update working

 

Manually install Windows Update Agent 3.0.

 

You can do this after you install SP3 and it will fix it.

 

1. Download the new Agent (but do not Run it yet) to your Desktop (so you

can find it below) :

 

X86 Version:

http://download.windowsupdate.com/WindowsUpdate/redist/standalone/7.0.6000.381/WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe

 

2. Start, Run, CMD

 

In the black box:

 

net stop wuauserv

"%userprofile%\Desktop\WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe" /wuforce (don't forget

the quotation marks)

net start wuauserv exit

 

Thanks to Bill Castner for putting me onto it.

 

 

Regards

Mark Dormer

Re: SP3 stops Microsoft update working

 

Download and install the Windows Update Agent - see this article for links

 

Updates are not installed successfully from Windows Update, from Microsoft Update, or by

using Automatic Updates after you repair a Windows XP installation

RE: SP3 stops Microsoft update working

 

 

Here is a fix for those who have issues updating after installing sp3

copy only the text between the ~~~~ (tilde) lines and paste to a new text

file then rename it to FixMicrosoftScrewUP.bat ... after that double click

the .bat file and let it run. After that completes, your Windows update will

work properly again.

hope this helps... (problem is related to the sp3 corrupting the .dll

files that windows update uses)

having same problem as Brian. your instructions aren't clear to me. is

this what I type into black box? net stop wuauserv

"%userprofile%\Desktop\WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe" /wuforcenet start

wuauserv exit also, should there be a space or comma between it and

the text already there? will be checking back.
