Windows Update wont friggen update


Recommended Posts

there are 5 updates. 3 important and 2 unimportant. ive tried updating them all together and all separately and everyt ime it says it fails. troubleshooting comes up with nothing and idk why it wont update.

 

these are the updates:

(Important)

W7 Service Pack 1 for x64

Windows IE9 for x64

Security Update for MS C++ 2010

 

(Unimportant)

Intel Driver Update for WiFi link 5100 AGN

Realtek - Network - Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller

 

 

as i said. ive tried downloading them all separately to see if it was one of these causing trouble and it just sits there saying its downloading, but stays at 0% 0KB total and at varying times (sometimes takes like a half hour, sometimes only 5 minutes) it will say it failed and gives me an Error (80070005)

 

any suggestions?

ive scanned my computer with 3 different scanners, they all say clean.

 

i read into it and it said i may need to run as admin, but there is no option to run as admin.

lol this isnt the first day i tried.

 

but ive scanned with Spybot (found nothing) AVG (found nothing) full scan with McAfee (found a tracking cookie?) and am currently full scanning with MSE. after which ill reboot my PC and try again. :/

 

lol woulda been done scanning by now but my PC froze on me earlier then i lost power so had to restart the full MSE scan. ugh.

yea as i said, i read that its because i dont have administrator rights, but there is no Run as Admin option when i right click.

 

and AFAIK there is no local security policy with Windows 7 home. ive checked in the past. how i hate W7 Home.

Tried system restore? SFC check? Windows disk and run the repair utility?

 

If you haven't tried any of those and/or don't know how just ask.
