Hello all, That friend of mine's laptop is giving me more headaches tan the ones I'd like... Now I can't update it... Have you been there and found a solution? the sites that are recommending me to download the latest update manager are not helping a lot... As it is stated in the subject, the error that Windows Update is giving me is: 0x8024D001 And When I'm trying to go to the Microsoft update site a this page appears: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2497281 Any idea? I've just finished sending all the backup data to the laptop and I would hate to reinstall everything again... :sigh: Thank you in advance! :thumbsup:

Why are you installing XP on it? Is the laptop not capable of supporting Windows 7?

That is brilliant: Windows Update does not start in Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, or Windows 2000 Solution: Turn on Automatic Updates :thumbsup: So, if you can't get the updater to work, run the updater... :laugh:

Check the date/time on the laptop. I remember XPs windows update having a problem if the date was wrong by too much.

There is the "wait an hour before trying again" - I suspect this is the old "turn it off, wait a couple of minutes and turn it back on" support trick: If it work, they think you're brilliant, if it doesn't, someone else will get the call when they call back...

IE8 from IE7 on Windows XP 32-bit? That would be a feat. (aside) Have you made sure you're not dealing with a rootkit?
