Error Code: 0x87FF0004

I have a Toshiba Tecra laptop with 1 Gb Ram and 2GHz Centrino Processor.
After I sent it to them for a reformat (it appeared I had the wrong recovery
CD), I got it back with Service Pack 1.
Now I am trying to install SP2, and cannot download it at all. I get the
message from the Microsoft site that I have downloaded 0 KB's. I get the
error mentioned in the subject.

Any ideas?

Hello Yiorgos,

Hi Engel,

I did what you said, and now I get the error codes mentioned above.
The thing is, as soon as I visit the Windows site, I get the message that
there are 0 KBs to download. Looks like I have already downloaded but not
installed the SP.
However when I do try to install it, a message pops up that says ''setup
failed''

Awaiting any suggestions

Hi Yiorgos,


Try Dial-ª-fix


<http://wiki.djlizard.net/Dial-a-fix>


Run this program with all the functions activated in safe mºde. (F-8)


Please read the page and Scroll down about 2/3 of the way to Download
Dial-ª-fix


Exit Safe Mode (Rebººt)



You didn't say, or at least it's not clear, whether you tried getting the
updates using Internet Explorer, by going here:


<http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/>


Some new ActiveX software has to be installed on XP before your computer can
be scanned.



Just follow the prompts to do so, but it should then list and download the
same updates, and install them, as those you see in the taskbar notificatiºn.



If going to the site is successful, keep going back until there are no more
critical updates to install.



Try the updates n0w

<http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/>
