Windows Update will not download updates
I recently reinstalled Windows 7. Windows Update hangs while downloading updates. The progress bar is pulsing, and there are no error messages, but it says "Downloading 17 updates (0 KB total, 0% complete)" and does not move. I have tried the MrFixIt tool at http://support.microsoft.com/mats/windows_update/ but it also stops and says "Checking for updates online..." and does not progress. I have disabled my firewall and my antivirus (Microsoft Security Essentials) and that did not help. What should I do? View the thread

Access to and external Hard Drive
I have an older desktop PC running WinXP that crashed. I had 2 - 320GB hard drives. I have mounted the drives in an external enclosure, but can't get onto the drives with a new core i7 desktop running Win7. I don't see the drive when I try to access them through 'my computer', but when I run 'Computer Management' and then 'Disk Management', the console SEES the drive and gives this info: It shows as a volume with no drive letter - only as 'Disk 10' Layout: Simple Type: Basic File System: none shown Status: Healthy (Active, Primary Partition) Capacity: 298.09 GB Free Space: 298.09 % Free: 100% Fault Tolerance: No Overhead: 0% It is shown as being 'Online' There IS data on the disk even though it shows 100% empty.....so what does that indicate? If I right click on the drive, ONLY the 'Delete Volume: and 'Help' are active - everything else is greyed out so I can 't change anything. So, help would sincerely be appreciated. View the thread

After scanning my Windows XP home edition SP3 computer and removing the threats with Anti-spyware, my Windows password is no longer recognized. The reminder question is the one I set, but when I type (correctly, I might add) the password in, a balloon appears asking me if I have forgotten my password. I have NOT--the machine has! I am the administrator. What do I do? View this thread
