My hard drive crashed, and my laptop is 3 years old figured I'll replace it. Bought a new hard drive, installed it last night, used my Dell System Recovery disc which I made when you first purchased pc.
I have Windows 7 Home Edition. My DELL laptop states it's a 64 bit. Now the laptop is working fine, have my internet, firewall, antivirus, printer, webcam, working but before I start updating multiple drivers I want to update my windows as there so many security. I know my Laptop is over 3 years old, so I was expecting over 100 updates. My recovery disk did not ask me to authenticate windows which I found odd but must've already been on the disk. I check the product key and although its not the same as the sticker under the DELL laptop, however it say Windows is activated, and the genuine logo is to the right. But why I keep getting this error:
Windows update can not currently check for updates because the service is not running. You may need to restart your computer,
I've restarted many times, I've searched through the community and I found the following and did them but I don't know what else to do
Windows Update Troubleshooter
It states fixed some items, however NOT FIXED for the updater, files missing
Windows Resource Protection could not start the
SFC output
Used Microsoft Fix it, I reset windows update components, it did not find anything
I have hardly no data on the hard drive, it's a empty drive, I did not continue to install applications like iTunes and misc. picture apps.
I need HELP.
