    Hi Justin,

    Thats a big ol log, but i cant see anything wrong.

    I would like you to remove AutoKms, i have no idea why its on your system unless you have any pirated software.
    It creates a loop back to validate, but theres no reason you need it for W7 as the product key appears genuine and theres no other indication within the Mgadiag.

    Can you also reset IE8
    Control Panel >> Internet options > Advanced tab... restore

    Reboot

    try updating


    Do you have any language packs installed.

    Roy,
    I deactivated and removed (I think) the AutoKMS program. Don't know where it came from. As you say, my Windows installation is completely kosher, bought and paid for. I reset IE8, rebooted, but have the same problem. IE 11 does not install, and I get a 9C57 error.

    This is vexing, and I really appreciate the time you are taking to help. I'm out of ideas, short of completely reinstalling Windows 7, or going to Windows 10. That is probably what I should do, although the thought of wiping my drive, and reinstalling all the programs I run on this machine is daunting.

    If you have any thoughts that would help me avoid reformatting, I'd be grateful.

    As to SP1, I believe it is installed...the properties screen for Windows 7 says it is. Is it possible that somehow that installation was flawed and should be done again?

    Justin

    Roy,

    I was unable to download the ISO for W7 Pro SP1 because the Microsoft website would not accept my Proof of License code. I have to call them in the morning. I do have the disks, both 32-bit and 64-bit. Don't they have a recovery program on them?

    The info on the Dell program you suggested seems to imply that using it will wipe the hard drive, reformat, and then put down a clean version of W7...which I would like to avoid if at all possible.

    I am a flight simmer, and I have all my support programs on the W7 computer (FSX:SE is on my main computer that has W10.) There are so many small but useful programs, as well as Microsoft office and Adobe C3, and I would hate to have to try to recreate everything I have built on that box over the years.

    If it comes to that, I might as well put W10 on it as well...but I'd sure like to avoid that grief if possible.

    I will try to call Microsoft in the morning. Meanwhile, thanks again for all your help.

    Hi Justin,

    MS wont provide you with a new Iso UNLESS you have a Retail product - yours is OEM

    Using the Dell link i provided you CAN perform a repair install - NO LOSS of YOUR data
    I posted a tutorial link earlier.
