My pc is running on vista home premium sp2 32-bit. Until recently everything was running fine, but around 12 of the automatic updates wouldn't install without error. Itunes and Safari have also not been able to update. The error reads 'could not access windows installer', I have tried msiexec but still no joy, its as if windows installer has been deleted from the pc and when i try to download from the microsoft website it jus says 'this update is not for you system'. Help please? View this thread

Something in my system keeps turning off Windows Defender every once in a while, and I have to keep turning it back on. I am running Windows XP, and the security programs I am using are Microsoft Security Essentials, Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool, Spybot Search and Destroy, and Lavasoft Ad-Aware. I normally have them all running at the same time, and with Spybot SD also have Resident "SD Helper" and "Tea Timer" active. Any ideas what could be causing this problem? View this thread

My Mom purchased an activation code for Office Professional Plus 2010 back in January of 2011. I just realized that she has been using Open Office and thinking she was using MS Office all this time. When I tried to activate, I was told the code was no good. Can I get a new code, or reactivate the old code? Thank you, Erick View this thread

Signature assignment resetting

Hi, I have a query about Outlook 2010, to help resolve an issue with a users signatures. This particular user has 2 exchange accounts in their Outlook, one of which is shared with a user on another computer (The user with the 2 accounts, has to type in the credentials of the other user to gain access when outlook opens). The email and most things are running fine. When one user deletes a mail, it syncs with the other computer, and it disappears from there etc. The problem I'm experiencing is with the signatures. There are signatures setup for both accounts on the computer with both accounts, and each email has both standard and _reply signatures. If the …

Can we get an Out Of Office meeting set in Outlook Calendar to trigger an Out Of Office reply from O
by Guest NewsBot- 0 replies

We have a user who works four days/week. In her Outlook Calendar, she can create an appointment and set it to show her as Out Of Office (OOO), which is a common functionality utilized by most users that go on vacation or travel from site to site. If she is usually out the same day every week, she can set that appointment to be recurring - again, common stuff. Question: why can I not find anyone that knows how to turn that Calendar OOO into an automated Email OOO response? Of course she could routinely turn on-and-off her OOO response in Email, but why should she have to? If the appt is set to be All Day, rather than 30 mins or two hours, why can't one side …

I have two dell pc's in a LAN with a verizon router and the network is wireless. Both PC's run the XP OS. Both machines are set to auto dnload and install windows updates from the Update website. Both PC's are protected by Norton 360. The auto dnload and instals worked just perfectly for a long time. Until the night of May 16 in fact. Both PC's install in the middle of the night. Since May 16 however the dnloads and installations have failed. I ran the "fix it utility" and this did not repair the problem. It is the exact same error code message for every failure: Installation Failure. Error Code: 0x8007001F. Help. I'm stymied. View this thread

Windows 7 Not Genuine after playing a game?
by Guest NewsBot- 0 replies

Hello! I bought a computer a few months ago which came with Windows 7 installed. I've have no problems with the computer at all until yesterday when after I played FlyFF for a few hours, "Windows 7, Build 7601, This copy of Windows is not genuine." But it is, and every time I run MGADiag.exe the message goes away. The next time I play that game, though, the message comes up again after about an hour in game. It doesn't come up if I do anything else on the computer, even other online games. Anyone know what's going on and how to fix this? Here's the data that MGADiag.exe gives me when I run it, in case that helps. Diagnostic Report (1.9.0027.0): ----…

Office 2010 Professional Plus 2010 install
by Guest NewsBot- 0 replies

My first attempt at installing Office 2010 was interrupted. I cancelled the installation. I made sure Microsoft updates were installed(I'm using Windows 7) and then restarted the computer. When I put the disk in, it begins to run the "bootstrap" and begins to prepare files for setup but then an error message, "Setup has stopped working" appears, followed by "A problem occured casuing the program to stop working." I tried the "Fixit" function on the Microsoft site, which removed the rgstrtn.lck file. I restarted again and still no joy. I'm not very technically savvy and need this installed soon. Please help!
