Windows Update cannot currently check for updates
Hello Everyone:
I am unable to receive Windows updates. Even manual updates won't work. This seems to have started when I upgrade my Hard Drive to a Momentus xt 750GB (Hybrid Drive)
I combed the network and try all solution suggested. I reverted to drive images made at various time. No luck.
The first message when I click is Windows Update Checjk for update for your computer. Then Windows Update cannot currently check for updates, because the service is not running. You may need to restart your computer,
It doesn't appear to be a virus: Fresh installs won't clear the and my Norton has always been up to date. I even run Windows Malicious detector. Zero issues.
What I come to think of is a compatibility issue: 512b then, 4kb now? I know there has been a patch and I use routinely external HD of High capacity.
I would appreciate some help if you can. Again, I don't think it is a virus.
Windows 7 Ultimate
Sony Vaio VGN Z890F with 6 GB
Many thanks.
