i have formatted a friend's laptop and installed windows 7 starter but am facing a very strange problem i cannot update the system when im checking for updates an error code 8024402f appears and telling me that it cannot check for updates when this problem came after a fresh install i thought the daz loader was a problem so i uninstalled the loader but same error appears. i tried microsoft fix it , microsoftupdate cab but the same thing after a lot of hours of googleing nothing solved this problem so i re-formatted it but still the same thing my windows 7 are untouched , i have used only eing removal for windows 7 home premium x86 just to have the option to install the starter please help me
i just want to know how to fix it i have also read this but i dont know how to allow windows updates from firewall the internet is working 100% all the time
try turning auto updates off then turn them back on again ? I have sometimes had issues like this on fresh re-installs. Also try some manual downloads from microsoft and see if they install ie. SP1 to see if this kicks in the auto updating process ??
im using the windows build in firewall i have already used these tools like i have said on my first post so please help me i dont know if daz which is expert if he can tell me what i have to do
my windows 7 has by default the SP 1 (media refresh) give me a link for an update which you believe that will work @vymrda i have already told you that i have tried fix it , also i have reset the windows firewall to default i have read almost 2 times your suggestion link
