    Hello gordie,

    Which .iso are you using to install Windows 7? Some updates require at least service pack 1 before they become available to the user. Also, the Servicing Stack used by Windows Update itself needs updating, before Windows Update becomes usable. The Servicing Stack update is available from Microsoft Update Catalog.

    [1] What installation media did you use for the install?
    [2] Where did you get the installation media [ISO/DVD/USB] from?
    [3] Is the installation media SP1?
