well, my first thread was written during some kind of server problems so i repost it.
maybe a admin can delete the empty one
Hi there vista community,
i urgently need help with my vista service pack.
At first the automatic update always tried to install the sp1 when i shut the computer down but it always failed, so i decided
to download the service pack manually and install it cause i hoped problems with the windows calender, instant search(cant
find anything)and the help&support would be solved. well they were not but not just that.
right now every time i start the computer it tells me that i didnt activate my windows yet. so i have to type in the 25 number
long product key and wait for the online activation every time. really annoying.
i tried almost everything uninstalling the update and many computer recovery tries but
after uninstalling the update for like 1/2 - 1 h and restarting (without a activation needed) i tells me, sp1 was not uninstalled
properly. so its still there (bug 0x004E003).
almost the same with the system recovery. i tried many different points, but the only time it worked was a recovery that
recovered my system AFTER the installing of sp1.
when i tried to recover it before the installation i tells me
unknown error. system recovery wasnt completed. ur system is still the same as before.
So i read many articles about similar problems which told me that probably a re installation of vista is needed. so i would
have to reformat my computer with about 100 gb. saving them on dvds, and reinstalling every plug in would be horrible.
So maybe u know how to solve this OR if microsoft is working on solving this error so that i just wait and install a update
which fixes this. that would be a better solving as reinstalling vista cause really often i start the computer only once or twice
a day.
Hope u can help me

p.s.
hope u understand everything i still go to school in germany and i guess ur error windows wont tell u the exact same
