Solved Cannot Update Windows After Factory Restore

grobert · Jan 27, 2013

I did a complete Factory restore on this laptop because i could not get Security Essentials and Windows updates to work. I did a reset of the widows update module with a script I found on this forum, but updates would still not work. So.. I said "I had enough" and decided to do a factory restore.

As soon as I had windows restored as If I Just bought it I ran Windows update to see what would happen. From start/all programs I clicked Windows Updates.

I get the following message: "Windows Update cannot currently check for updates, because the service is not running.

All the needed services are listed as running, which is confusing the heck out of me.

Is it possible that the restore partition is corrupt. The computer did have some viruses before the factory restore which I believe casued this in the first place.

Is it activated ?

grobert · Jan 27, 2013

If you mean windows. yes

Layback Bear · Jan 27, 2013

Well Windows activation and updating is not my bag of worms these will help you check for infections. To answer your question; Yes a infection can install itself in any and every part of your computer if is connected in any fashion. It depends on the ability and desires of the person who created the infection.

First, try this....

Open Windows Update
Click on Change Settings
Select 'Never Update...'
Click OK
exit Windows Update
Now open Windows update again
Click on Change Settings
Select 'Update automatically'
Click OK
exit Windows Update
Open Windows Update, and do a manual Check for Updates.

If it still fails, please follow the http://www.sevenforums.com/windows-...4840-windows-update-posting-instructions.html and post the requested information.

I followed the instructions in the Windows Update Posting Link and here is what happened.

The setup started for the System Update Readiness Tool then failed with this error: Installer encountered an error: 0xc8000247

My CBS folder is attached.

NoelDP · Jan 27, 2013

Interesting - If I'm reading that right, SFC managed to repair one file, but failed to repair the other.
The CheckSUR result is consistent with problems with the chipset drivers - please attempt validation at www.microsoft.com/genuine/validate and then post an MGADiag report....

Windows Activation Install Failed with this error: Update installation failed. Error information - 0xC8000247

But I hope the diag helps.

Yep - thought so.
You need to install the IRST drivers for your machine...
Try this set first off....

This may simply be caused by a bad set of Intel Rapid Storage Technology drivers -

Installing the Intel Rapid Storage Drivers
try downloading and installing them from here - http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&ProdId=2101&DwnldID=21730

(you want the iata_enu.exe download)

Once complete, please reboot twice, then post another MGADiag report.

grobert · Jan 27, 2013

Ok we are now getting some where. I installed the drivers. rebooted, tried windows update and got this error message:

An error occurred while checking for new updates for your computer.

Good - that's looking better.
The machine is probably a lot more responsive as well.
Please run another SFC /SCANNOW and post the new CBS log, and also run CheckSUR again, and post the CheckSUR.log file.

grobert · Jan 28, 2013

I ran the System Update Readiness Tool again, this time it installed and the Automatic updates started as soon as it was done. Windows updates works without issues as well as Security essentials. Thank you very much for your help!

NoelDP · Jan 29, 2013

Great - please post the CheckSUR log file so we can check it.
