My first problem was the update program hanging. In attempting to fix it, prior to the Fix It, I 'broke' my event log so it would not start automatically. I tried the Update Fix-it and it worked. However, I had to do a repair install of Vista w/ sp1, to fix my event log and several other services that were not starting automatically.

Now windows update is hanging again. I have tried both the default and aggressive fix it – both hang at the Check Windows Update status spot and I have to kill the Fix It.

I have since install SP2 – still have the problem. I am using the most recent version of Fix it. Incredible that this new fangled opearting system is now being superceded by windows 7. Hopefully this will not be as a diasater as windows 6 vista. What a waste of money XP ran fine and this overbloated system came along to fool us to buy it and then for a whole bunch of people the update service just fails and causes tremendous amounts of loss in time and hair. Thank you, yet again Microsoft!

Apart from 98 and XP. The rest of the cousins kind of stunk a little. Hopefully the new windows 7 isn’t a smelly cousin and is a nice clean well shaved boy. We should all get a free upgrade to it if we have update errors, but I doubt if that would happen.

Or perhaps they had, but something inside Windows wasn't recognizing that fact.Unfortunately, these kinds of problems aren't uncommon.
