[DMG]

Hi

When I try to use Windows Update to check for updates, I got this error message:

"Windows could not search for new updates
Error(s) found:
Code 80070424
"

Hope someone can help.

Hi Shenan

It for Vista and I've found the fix from the thread posted by Christopher for the problem.

Thanks.

Hi,

I am runnin' in Windows Vista Home Edition, and that command regsvr32
wuaueng.dll did not help me at all...

Any other options?

thx

BTW, please begin a new thread about your specific problems to avoid
confusion. State your IE version and full Windows version (e.g., WinXP SP3;
Vista SP1; Vista 64-bit SP2; Win7; Win7 64-bit) in your first post. Thank
you.
