RE: Vista update not installing, is it legitimate? Plz help?

Resolutions in order.

Resolution 1: Restart your computer and check Windows Update again.

Resolution 2: Check your hard disk for errors.

Resolution 3: Run the System File Checker tool.

Resolution 4: Run the Windows Vista Memory Diagnostic Tool.

Resolution 5: Restart the computer and close or disable any applications that may be running.



One of the most common causes of installation failure is when a third-party application holds a file open or locks a file that the service pack installation program needs.



To minimize this chance, follow these steps before you try to install Windows Vista SP1:

1. Close all applications, and then restart your computer.



2. After your computer has restarted, disable any antivirus or any antispyware applications that may load during the startup process.

You can usually disable the application from the notification area. To disable an application from the notification area, right-click the third-party program icon, and then click an option to close or to disable the application. The Close option or the Disable option may resemble the following options: Disable, Close, or Exit.



3. As soon as you close the antivirus or the antispyware application, try to install Windows Vista SP1 from the Windows Update site or from the Microsoft Update site. Or, try to install Windows Vista SP1 from the full download package.

Note: If you have downloaded the full download package, try to install Windows Vista SP1 from the full download package.



4. After you have completed the Windows Vista SP1 installation, enable the antivirus or the antispyware application that you disabled in step 2.

I don't know, I tried installing it also and it acted gay. I think it doesn't support Vista or something...
