win7 sp1 update problems

[wisted]

I am trying to update my Win7 Gateway DX4822. I have done a total factory reinstall. Some of the updates work but not all. It will not update to SP1. I have tried to manually run the System Update Readiness Tool but I come up with a 0X8007000D error data invalid. When I run sfc /scannow, I get notifications of corrupt files that it can't fix. I would attach the CBS file but it is too large. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi -

Is Windows 7 activated & validated?

The 000D error is usually related to permissions problems in the registry, in my experience.
Please run another SFC scan, and post the results
SFC -System File Checker - Instructions
Click on Start > All Programs > Accessories
Right-click on the Command Prompt entry
Select Run as Administrator and accept the UAC prompt - the Elevated Command Prompt window should pop up.

At the Command prompt, type

SFC /SCANNOW

and hit the Enter key

Wait for the scan to finish - make a note of any error messages - and then reboot.


Copy the entire C:\Windows\Logs\CBS folder to your desktop (you can't manipulate it directly) and then compress the copy and upload it to your reply - if it's too large for the forum, delete a couple of the oldest CBSPersist files and try again.

Any particular key, or just Windows Update registry keys generally? I'm pretty sure there's also a strong association with hardware failure too. Or at least I've always associated that error with hardware failure, but I have never had a 100% success rate on that so would be very interested in this extra theory.

But yeah, if none of the above works, test hardware IMO.

Specifically, there's a related KB....
Error code 0x8007000D when trying to activate a Windows server 2008 or Windows 7 machine using any type of product key.
... and a few such items as this...
Error Code 0x8007000D (Fixed)

(anyone'd think I specialised in WGA, huh? )

I have indeed seen a 00D error caused by hardware problems - from memory, they were HD problems, and the disk was corrupt.

The built-in error traps that I've accessed show it to be either..
'Error_invalid_data' - IE
or
'Unable to Open the License. The Data is invalid' - WAT
