Windows 7 x64 sp1 installation error

[kr0wnage]

Trying to install sp1 on a windows 7 computer.

I get this error code: [FONT=&quot]8024200D

I have tried installing from Windows Update and from a disc.

I did run sfc /scannow but the file is too large to paste or attach as a text doc

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Please follow the Windows Update Posting Instructions and post the requested data
If the file is too large (8MB compressed), remove the older CBSPersist cab files until the final file is below the limit - you can always post them separately after zipping them. (the forum doesn't allow the upload of bare CAB files, for a number of reasons)

Attached is the CBS file..

The error we get is : Code 8024200D Windows Update encountered an unknown error


Thanks!

The problem appears to be with the SP1 install.
Your best bet is probably a repair install of the OS.

ok will give it a shot...will post the results.

thank you!

I tried the repair install using the seven forums guide.

Unfortunately, it won't let me do this method since it tells me i need to install sp1 to use the iso i'm trying to use(which is what i'm trying to install in the first place)...i'm using windows 7 ultimate x64 sp1 iso
so if there's a windows 7 ultimate x64 iso out there without sp1 on it, i might be able to use that

If you scroll down this page

Windows 7 Direct Download Links, Official Disk Images from Digital River

there's Windows 7 Ultimate x64 RTM iso - I think that means release to manufacturer ie pre sp1

the link seems live

I went to that link and don't see a live link..can you paste it here?

Not sure if I'm allowed to hot link. See snip where I'm testing the English USA link (from UK).

maybe it was temp down or not available in your country

 

[kr0wnage]

This is what it shows when i go to the link

That's the Chinese Taiwan section - I was referring to English USA section. If you are in China, maybe the downloads are not available in your country.

That's weird. I'm not in China. I'm in America.

That's weird. I'm not in China. I'm in America.

in your screenshot you were looking at

Win7-P-Retail-zh-tw-x86.exe

which is in the China Taiwan section of the page. US Eng is the section below

I think you're pulling my plonker << UK saying
