    Windows Update Error 80070490?


    Windows Update has a problem on my machine. Most of the updates get installed with no problem. However now and then (more then than now) one or more of them won't install. I have a couple from last year that are still sitting there. Today I ran the rediness tool a couple of times with no change. I've played with this for days now, I better stop before I fubar the whole thing up. I'm hoping one of you techies can help me figure this out.
    Error code is 80070490 (of course that's an unknown error)

    Tnx,
    Dusty

    RE: Error 80070490?


    Thanks,. I'll re-run the readiness tool a few more times. Now, the big question... As I understand the article, there's a good chance I'll be re-installing windows 7. My machine (64 bit) came with windows 7 pre-loaded, so... no disk. I remember having been pointed to a site along time ago that hosted all of the various versions, languages etc. Do you (or someone) remember the URL for that site? I predict that I have a a lot of work ahead of me <grin>
    Tnx a bunch,
    Dusty

    Sure do Dusty just see this Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7
    just make sure to pick the right version and use the original activation code on the machines sticker. If you cannot find it for whatever reason phone Microsoft.
