Well.... so far, so good :D 229 updates, there was one that failed, resulting in Code 9C59 but I didn't notice it until the update completion window was leaving the screen as I restarted to install all the updates. So far, though, no nastygrams or other errors. SecureIT is being reinstalled...

Well.... here's the scoop. Went thru the uninstall instructions for Windows 7 w/S1 and the system said that KB976932 was not installed. So I reinstalled via the installation disc. After adding my retail product key in two places it indicated that Windows was activated, but also popped this...

After reading the instructions I have some concerns before I run this. 1) It says to download any network adapter drivers for your system. I couldn't locate any for the motherboard for this build. Will this be a problem? 2) "Gather your license keys for software and for Windows to allow easy...

My external drive took a lightning strike last week & I haven't gotten another yet, so I need to see if my most important stuff will fit on a thumb drive. Will be a minute, but I'll let you know what's up ASAP.

Still getting the error. Evidently I've given you some faulty information earlier & I sincerely apologize - we had bought the desktop & a laptop at about the same time, and I found out tonigh that the desktop actually came with Windows 7 Home Premium, and that I have the original installation...

Start Repairs has run and the unit has been restarted.... will leave it on and let you know if the error comes back when I get up. Sorry for the confusion... I'm enough of a ninny that Safe Mode freaks me out a little, but I think I got the task done LOL :)

Problems encountered..... replying from my laptop. Download would not offer an "extract" option, but wanted to be extracted via WinZip which I did. I located Repair_Windows.exe in the extracted files, ran Reboot to Safe Mode, but the window that popped was a "What is Safe Mode" window. No...
