I have been going around and around with my wife's computer.
Specs: MSI X58 mobo, Intel Core i7, 16g ram, gForce 9500 video with dual DVI out, 740g drive, Win 7 Pro 64b.
I built this machine and it has been running great for months and last week it started to freak out. My wife was having issues with Word crashing; started just after the updates from last week (smells funny). I figured, well, I can't see any problems, more than likely a bad update, MS will fix this week.
Well, no. It's gotten worse. I started getting the 1719 error, and have searched the web high and low for anything to fix it.
I followed instructions that don't work (or don't work anymore). I can't reinstall windows, because the disc is now so old, vs the updated service packed version on the machine.
I tried a fix from MS to fix installer issues, but it died on the vine - can't find the server, try again later.
The guts of the problem? I have a number of stuck windows updates just dying to be done, but they won't install. One does, but it's back upon reboot.
On this site, I found a link to a registry fix; import and it will fix the problem... no such luck.
I have beaten my head against the wall trying to make sense of this.
As soon as I log in Acrobat 8 Standard tries to update; but I get the 1719 error and the update ends. Same with office. It has apparently tried to install SP3, but with zero success.
I can run it from the run line in the start box but when I click on Word, it wants to finish SP3, but blows when it can't find it.
Any brilliant ideas?
Thanks!!!
