Services pack 1 for Vista Home premium will not install!

Services pack 1 keeps failing to install on the second stage. I have tried to install it about 8 or 9 times now but still the same. It just completes the first stage then fails.
Please can you advise me what I need to done to get this to install?
Kind regards

Hi,
During the Windows Vista SP1 installation, this issue occurs when a third-party application holds open a file or locks a file that the Service Pack installation program
has to use. For example, a third-party antivirus or antispyware application may cause this problem. If you are running any third-party applications such as Spyblocker, Internet or web accelerators (programs designed to boost the speed of the Internet connection),
security or anti-virus programs (McAfee, Norton, etc.), I recommend temporarily disabling or shutting them down during the troubleshooting process. Please be sure to re-enable them once the process has completed.
I recommend running Reset Windows Update Tool and System Update Readiness Tool. System resources, such as file data, registry data, and even in-memory data, can develop
inconsistencies during the lifetime of the operating system. These inconsistencies can be caused by various hardware failures or software issues. In some cases, these inconsistencies can affect the Windows servicing store, and they can cause software updates
not to work. We can run Reset Windows Update Tool and System Update Readiness Tool to resolve these inconsistencies. When Reset Windows Update Tool and System Update Readiness Tool detects incorrect manifests, files, or registry data, it might replace the
incorrect data with a corrected version. Please follow the steps below.
Step 1: Run Reset Windows Update Tool and System Update Readiness Tool
1. Please download and run Reset Windows Update Tool from the link below:
http://go.microsoft.com/?linkid=9665683
2. Please download and run System Update Readiness Tool from the link below according to the System Type:

3. Restart the computer and install Windows Vista SP1. Let’s reinstall
SP1 standalone installer in Clean Boot.
For your reference, I have attached these steps as below:
Step 1: Download Windows Vista Service Pack 1 Standalone Installer
====================================================
1. Download Windows Vista SP1 from the link below according to the System Type:
Windows Vista Service Pack 1 for Windows Vista 32-bit (Size: 544.3MB)

2. Please save it on the Desktop.
Step 2: Install Windows Vista SP1 in Clean Boot Mode
=========================================
Please disable all startup items and third party services when booting to avoid conflict when installing
Vista SP1.:
1. Click "Start", type: MSCONFIG in the search box and press Enter.
Note: Please click "Continue" if the "User Account Control" window pops up.
2. Click "Services", check the "Hide All Microsoft Services" box and click "Disable All" (if it is not gray).
3. Click "Startup", click "Disable All", click "OK" and restart the computer.
Note: Temporarily disabling the Startup Group only prevents the startup programs from loading at startup. This shouldn't affect the system or other programs. We can manually run these programs later.
4. Please double click the downloaded Windows Vista Service Pack 1 Standalone Installer and follow the instructions to install Windows
Vista SP1.
To restore the computer to use a Normal Startup, repeat step 1 above. Then click "Normal Startup" on the General tab, click "OK", and then restart the computer.

  • Mac Book Boot camp and Vista Home Premium  - will it run ok?

    I have the latest black Mac Book with 2GB of ram installed. Will this allow Boot Camp to run Vista Home Premium ok? Or should I go for Parallels instead?

    I run the exact same system. The Vista performance test scores are as follows:
    Processor 5.1
    Memory 4.6
    Graphics 3.3
    Gaming Graphics 3.1
    Primary Hard Disk 4.8
    Obviously this is not a system for really high end gaming, but the average user will be very pleased with the performance. Do not forget that you can use a flash memory USB device with ReadyBoost to get a little bump in these numbers.
    I could not be happier with how Vista Home Premium runs on my Macbook. It takes 3X the time to start up as Mac OS X.

  • Which version for Vista Home Premium?

    I have to run ITunes on a laptop with windows vista home premium 2006.
    After some recent automatic update Itunes is not running anymore. It crashes either if I try to upload any CD on my Ipod or if I try to sinchronize my Ipad.
    In a few words, should I reinstall an older version of Itunes? Which one?

    Itues is version 11.0.2
    Maybe the Vista version has not been updated in recent years. I'll see, but I wouldn't like to update Vista because the laptop is old and I guess it would become slower.
    The problem with Itues is that as soon as I try to synchronize the Ipad it freezes and I'have to force the shutdown of Itunes in order to make the laptop run again.
    If I try to upload a music CD the upload and conversion to Aac format is supe slow (I mean 1 hour for a 4 minute track).

  • Can't update my Ipod classic's software. My Window's Vista Home Edition will not load the latest version of Itunes, and the older versions will not allow my Ipod to connect to the update server

    I have an Ipod Classic, 80 gig. It's over 3 years old. I have a Samsung SensR410 laptop, also over 3 years old, running Vista Home Premium 32bit but '64bit Compatible'
    I had iTunes 8.
    One day my Ipod stopped working.
    I formatted it.
    I uninstalled iTiunes.
    I re-installed iTunes.
    But the latest version would not be loaded on my PC. I chose English as the language, but because I bought my laptop in Korea, some parts of the installation were in Korea. I uninstalled it, following the steps here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
    I re-installed iTunes 8. It loaded, but when I plugged in my Ipod, it said that the Ipod needed to be updated/restored, 'click to contact updater' but then it could not contact the server. I tried: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1814but it didn't help.
    I tried downloading iTunes 9, it loaded, but the Ipod would not connect.
    Help, please!

    Hi Edward,
    You should still be able to manually manage the music on your iPhone within iTunes. Make sure that when your iPhone is plugged in, look in the Summary tab to see if “Manually manage music and videos” is enabled and you can even you turn off Automatically Sync when this iPhone is connected. Take a look at the first article below to give more information on that. As far as your other questions about calling someone, I have provided two options for you. If it is for feedback on iTunes, you can use the second link to give detailed feedback on what is going on. If you want to actually talk to someone, the last link has a list of numbers for you to call for any support or service that you may need.

  • Vista Ultimate SP1 will not install

    After downloading a package including SP1, following install protocol produces error code 80070002.
      Attempting to install from online access produces error code 8024200D
    Microsoft now recommends an inplace upgrade. But that requires the installation DVD and product code.
    Lenovo did not provide an installation DVD or a product code.
    Any ideas ? 
    New in early April 2008 Lenovo T61

    Hi
    According to MS, error code 8024200D implies that all necessary previous updates were not installed properly, hence SP1 will not install. Here is a good explanation of error code 80070002 and a possible fix for that issue.
    How to fix this problem (successful SP1 install) entirely? I wouldn't know where to start, quite frankly. There have been numerous threads here in these forums regarding both "error" codes - I'd advise you to search the forums entering only the error code to see what comes up. You may also like to search through the forums at http://forum.thinkpads.com (not officially affiliated with Lenovo, but an excellent resource site nonetheless).
    Unfortunately, Microsoft really buried itself with all the administrative/security/secretive red-tape with regards to Vista. The same technology they introduced in that operating system meant to forestall "security threats" to the OS is causing huge problems even for a "simple" update. Ironically, even the fine folk at Microsoft don't know how to address many of these "error" codes... (If you search the Microsoft site,using those error codes, you'll see they offer no practical way of resolving the issue)!!!
    Partly why I and my clients avoid Vista altogether.
    By the way, the first thing you should have done when you received your machine was to make a set of "recovery" disks when prompted at first boot-up. Neither Lenovo nor any other major laptop manufacturer send out copies of the OS with the systems (well, ok, some occasionally do...). 
    Regarding the product code, the laptop you received with Vista Ultimate came "pre-activated". The OEM code found on the sticker below your machine is not an installation code for Vista.... So even if you had a DVD of Vista there in front of you and tried to install Vista on the laptop using the code on that OEM sticker, it would accept it but you wouldn't be able to activate Vista with that key. Don't get me wrong, the code is valid, but not for a fresh installation. All it is, is a license code that comes on a pre-activated install of Vista. You'd have to call Microsoft and explain what the situation is and ask them to accept the code found on the sticker on your machine, for which they'll give you a new license and activation code. I really don't know why MS complicates things so much.

    Hello jws338,
    It sounds like you are trying to get Java installed but it will not install at all. I recommend performing a Safe Boot first, then leave Safe Boot:
    OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1564
    Then download a fresh copy with the following link and try to install it:
    For a new installation of Java 7:
    Download the latest Java 7 version from www.java.com/download/mac_download.jsp.
    Open the downloaded disk image.
    Open the installer within and follow the onscreen instructions.

  • Windows Vista Home premium does not boot up properly

    My vista laptop worked fine for two weeks then started having many problems.
    Programs stopped working and the windows problems report and solutions kept popping up I think I have over 40 issues unsolved.
    Then if I haven??t been on the laptop for a while I start getting the blue screen of death, and won??t boot up for 20 mins because it is running thought a restart every time because of the blue screen. I have formatted the computer a few times and still have the same effect after a while.
    I think that this could be a software issue more then a hardware problem but I don??t want to go back to windows XP.
    I can?t install the service pack 1, when I try and install it says there is an internal error.
    I don't know how to solve my boot up problems any ideas ?
    Because it is wasting alot of time, I don't know if i should return my laptop
    thanks

    Hi mate,
    such issues - especially a BSOD - are not very good signs of an healthy system/machine. Did you recently installed some new applications or something else??
    If NOT I would suppose some hardware failure (memory, mainboard), because such problems appearing out of the nowhere are most likely hardware based and not really software dependant..
    If you really formatted your HDD several times and nothing was solved after re-installation of the system, then contact an [Service Center|http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_whitepaper.jsp?service=EU&WHITEPAPER_ID=0 000000871] send the machine to them and let them check your machine on hardware malfunctions. You have a warranty, so please use it.

  • Windows Vista Home Premium 64bit - Not syncing media

    I'm migrating myself from an HP laptop that will sync my Centro contact/addresses/media etc.  The HP runs XP Pro.  I'm moving to a Sony which runs  Windows Vista Home.  And I am able to sync most everything but the media.  None of my pictures/video or any media will transfer from my phone to my laptop.  I've read about currupt media and since it transfers to my HP, I'm thinking I'm good.  I currently have my /media/ to overwrite from my phone to my pc.  I'm wondering what I am missing.

When it is connected to my PC, running Vista home, it says it has synced successfully but I can,t transfer onto it an album I have bought and downloaded from iTunes. Help!!! This is my first Apple product so I have no experience and no manual.

    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer? If so you can only use the manual method and that only works with music and videos.

  • Help for Flash player that will not install

    Flash player won't install on  Dell with Mozilla Firefox version 33.0 for Yahoo 1.32. It does not matter what I try or even if I delete all old flash player files, folders etc. The download goes as far as the black box where it should be installing and just freezes there. I have pretty much tried everything to get it t0 install, including your troubleshooter. I also checked on Firefox and there is no available plug in download for the flash player. I even uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox and that will still not work. I tried to download using just Internet Explore 11 and that wont work either. It saves the file and I can make it run, but it goes directly to the black box fr Adobe flash player installation and is blank and will not go any further. help please!!!

    Hi
    I read your post about having difficulty downloading flash player 10 but that you also were able to fix the problem. I  use IE8 and my operating system is XP Professional SP3. I'm hoping that you can answer a question for me.
    In the troubleshooting tip issued by Adobe one of the things to do was to check my sercuity program. I use Norton and currently Adobe Flash player isn't in the list of allowed programs under my internet settings. My question is, would it be ok to drop the executable file of the Flash Player that is currently on my desk top, drop it into the programs file? There is a folder with all of the other Adobe programs in it because then I could select and add to the allowed programs in my Norton.
    I hope someone can answer this for me.
    thanks,
    Ellen
