Just patching the ISO as we speak..... DONE! Just need a bit of spare time now to test and install it
Oh dear... I installed using the CoreSingleLanguage ISO created using the instructions in the previous post and all seemed to go well. Straight after installation - no problem, booted up and behaved fine.... but then I went to control panel - Windows Update and found about 300mb to 400mb of updates which seemed to download and install OK but after the prompt for reboot I am now seeing this message.... Failure configuring Windows Updates - reverting changes... Any suggestions?
This is because of update list database corruption error,just troubleshoot update error.you will be fine.
Could you be a bit more specific about what to look for and where for the solution? Do you mean to download the Windows Update Troubleshooter?
Oh so this hasn't got anything to do with the fact that the ISO is a Frankenbuild? I thought it was because of this?
I just ran the windows update troubleshooter and it found a/some problems which it fixed.... BUT then all references (Watermark and in System Properties) of "CoreSingleLanguage" disappeared completely and my PC became simply became "Windows 8" .... EDIT:- Using Ultimate PID Checker this edition is now reported as "Win Next Starter Retail" !!!!! Oh well back to the drawing board..
I just tried slmgr -dlv and got this:- Software Licensing Service Version 6.2.9200.16384 Error: Product Key Not Found There was a key after initial installation so I don't know where it's gone now!
For X64 only as of now. Ok then do Code: 1. Slmgr -rilc, 2. Slmgr -ipk. 3. schtasks /run /tn "\Microsoft\Windows\SoftwareProtectionPlatform\SvcRestartTask" 4. Try to update. if you had tried to install in a laptop with key embedded in bios you will have much less problems,but since you are trying on normal system there is little complication,but i am able to reproduce the problem and solve it with few simple steps mentioned above.
