Microsoft Update doesn't work after fresh System Restore

I installed a new hard drive (WD Scorpio Black, 750gb) in my Pavillion DV6-2150US and used the original HP disks to do a clean Windows 7 install.  Now that I have installed the OS, the Windows update process doesn't work properly, and won't download updates.  As a result, I can't install the Service Pack, etc.
I've tried the Microsoft troubleshooting steps for addressing the Windows Update issue, and they don't correct the problem.  ervices" says the Windows Update service is running, but when I try to run Microsoft Update, I get the message the service isn't running.
I have tried the install from two different sets of HP disks, as well as the recovery disks I made when the computer was new.  I get the same results each time.
Any thoughts as to what might be going on?

  • Uploading previous iWeb work after a system restore?

    How do I upload previous iWeb work after a system restore?
    I backed up my data on a Hard-drive then I did a factory reset or restore of my hard-drive....
    Now I am attempting to open my previous iWeb work online and it is not working please help.....

    Your domain.sites2 file is the file that iWeb stores all its data and it is this file that you need if you want to continue updating your website in iWeb. 
    It is found under your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and then the domain.sites file.
    Your user library is the one with the house and this is where your personal user information is stored as opposed to your System Library which is general and where iWeb is not.
    If you don't have your domain.sites file then you will have to re-build your site from scratch as iWeb does not have the ability to read or open html files - so a previously published site - it is a one way street creating html files upon publishing.

    Hi -
    I was wondering if you solved this problem. I had the exact same issue on Win2K after I installed the Java Portlet Development Kit. Now my Apache JServ does not work.
    This is a sample of my error_log:
    [Fri Jun 07 10:48:01 2002] [notice] FastCGI: process manager initialized
    [Fri Jun 07 10:48:08 2002] [error] OPM:Can not find one alive process
    [Fri Jun 07 10:48:08 2002] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: /servlet/IsItWorking
    [Fri Jun 07 10:51:22 2002] [warn] OPM: ADM: Process 380 terminated using SIGTERM successfully
    I have re-checked my jserv.properties, jserv.conf, zone.properties several times and I can't see the problem. I tried to manually remove the entire PDK and go back to my original state (I saved a copy of all my config files) but it still doesn't work.
    Did you find a way to fix this?
    Thanks!!!

  • Windows update does not work after using System recovery disk

    I have a Toshiba Satellite c655 with WIndows 7 64 bit Home premium. The hard drive died on it, so I purchased a new hard drive and purchased the appropriate Recovery media from Toshiba. I followed the directions and installed the 3 disks on to the new hard drive. But Windows update does not work I get the following error: Windows update can not currently check for updates, because the service is not running. You may need to restart your PC    No matter what I try, I can not get it to work. And it will not let me install Windows Defender either. Any ideas or help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance for your time on this matter.
    Solved!

    I get errors saying A problem is preventing the troubleshooter from starting.
    That makes two similarities to the following thread. Both Windows Update and Troubleshooters fail to work correctly.

  • Software Update doesn't work after new SSD install

    I just installed a new SSD into my five year old MacBookPro (CoreDuo). I am taking the opportunity to reinstall from the ground up, getting rid of a lot of the cruft I've gathered over the years. I installed 10.6 fresh from the DVD and then ran software update. I could update iTunes, Airport, etc, but couldn't run the 10.6.6 combo updater. I was told that the file was corrupted during download and wouldn't expand.
    I downloaded the standalone combo updater from the website and that worked fine. However, when I went to install the drivers for my printers via the System Preferences function, I get the same error. Is there a setting or something that I missed?

    In 10.6.8 Apple won't allow Mac's to connect to WEP Encrypted networks, and won't reconnect to "hidden" networks automatically.

  • Pacman doesn't work after fresh install

    Hi everyone, I just installed archlinux on my very old 400Mhz Dell Latitude, but now pacman won't do anything, I can't sync, I can't install anything, ... The install did have some issues, but I'm not sure if that is causing this
    The output from 'pacman -Sy'
    :: Synchronizing package databases...
    error: failed to synchronize core:
    error: failed to synchronize extra:
    error: failed to synchronize commutity:

    The pacman log doesn't say anything interesting, the configs look okay. That output is spit out rather quickly too, I'm not sure if it's even trying to use the internet (which is working)
    Can you help me?

    Hi candy, glad that you found that Shockwave Flash Object, it works with the Flash files and is very important
    The NPSWF files that you said are not there, those are for the Firefox browser or Chrome or some other browser. If you use Firefox and want the Flash Player for that, then close all of your browsers so you are only looking at your Desktop.
    Click on this Flash Player Installer for Firefox and SAVE it to your Desktop. Then RUN it from your Desktop, and after it is finished Installing, Restart your computer.
    Then Using Firefox go to the plug-ins and find a SWF vs 10.0.45.2 and make sure it is Enabled. This is just like the Shockwave Flash Object for Internet Explorer, but it is the one that works with Firefox.
    Let me know if that is what you wanted to do. If you don't use Firefox, but Chrome or another browser, then this will work for that one also.
    If you don't use another browser, then don't do any of this. I just thot maybe you did and that is why you were concerned that the NPSWF files were not there.
    Thanks,
